Thank you very much for this work. I've only some comments.

Even if it is shown in the Examples part, I think the use of slapd.conf
and slapd.d at the same time should be explained as it is in slapd(8).

Furthermore slapd-config(5) make references to slapd-bdb(5), slapd-ldap(5)
and others but these pages use old config style. Maybe you could add in a
first time a note to indicate that users should add olc prefix to use
these directives in cn=config branch. Of course I hope every pages will be
updated one day...

PS: I'm not able to see slapd-config(5) with man.cgi on the website (even
if I use OpenLDAP 2.X-Devel). Is it normal ?
