LDAP provides a general mechanism for obtaining schema elements,
see any good book about LDAP.  (It's not specific to OpenLDAP
Software and hence better discussed on a general LDAP list.)

OpenLDAP 2.2 provides no mechanism for a client to obtain
the name of the schema file, clients should instead use the
general schema retrevial mechanism.

The format is the same.  The content might differ.  Use diff(1).
