Re: deleting database files.

[Chris van der Merwe <chris@arnes.si>]

Hey Sam! Did you get an answer to this? Well any case you didn't - 
you'll find the files in [OpenLDAP_DIR]/var/openldap-data/

It would be wise to stop the slapd daemon before killing these files of 
course...

Of course you can also dig this out of your slapd.conf file:

# The database directory MUST exist prior to running slapd AND
# should only be accessible by the slapd and slap tools.
# Mode 700 recommended.
directory       /opt/openldap-bdb/var/openldap-data

Regards
 Chris
