Well, in the source code, of course. 

man 3 ldap_error lists all possible error values and points to the ldap.h file.

in the ldap.h file grep for error, and you will find the following:

Just convert the slapd.log error values into hex.

p.s.: Thats why I love open source software! Those who are not to lazy for
looking at the code can find all answers... but still, wouldn't this be a good
question to be added to the
faq?
