Doing command below with base "dc=sees,dc=bangor,dc=ac,dc=uk" gives the
entries that were in before (some spoof people etc) but nothing
resembling a password database. Putting
"ou=passwd,dc=sees,dc=bangor,dc=ac,dc=uk" gives: 

No such obect (32)
Matched DN: dc=sees,dc=bangor,dc=ac,dc=uk

slapcat doesn't reveal anything either

I'm guessing the server hasn't loaded the database for some reason but
don't know how to find out.

tried running slpad with -d 64 - relevant (?) bit is:

line 43 (database       passwd)
line 44 (suffix         "ou=passwd,dc=sees,dc=bangor,dc=ac,dc=uk")
line 46 (access to * by * read)

which sounds like it is being loaded (?)

Any further thoughs would be appreciated!
Thanks very much
Rob
