Why SIGINT?

- Suppose there are multiple instances of slapd running on different
ports (as I have), and suppose the initial slapd pid has changed since
startup (can happen)?

To avoid all of the above hassle, forget netstat et al; just do do: 

kill `ps -efw|grep slapd | awk '{ print $2 }'`

"kill" here is SIGTERM.

The RH /etc/rc.d/init.d/ldap with "function" (or whatever it might be)
does something similar.

Seems a good idea :-)

Best,
