Thank you Quanah, you have been invaluable.  You are correct, running 
ldapsearch -x -b 'dc=mdah,dc=state,dc=ms,dc=us' '(objectclass=*)' 
wouldn't get attributes such as the passwords since it is an anonymous 
bind.  Running  ldapsearch -x -h roark.mdah.state.ms.us -D 
"cn=Manager,dc=mdah,dc=state,dc=ms,dc=us" -W + "*" seems to have gotten 
everything.

I forgot I also have a slave server named archives3 using syncrepl (and 
it has all of the missing files).  when working on roark, i'll shut down 
slapd on archvies3 and make a backup of archives3's /var/lib/ldap incase 
something still goes horribly wrong, maybe i could copy archives3's 
/var/lib/ldap to roark and start slapd on roark and it would run fine.  
I will try your method of stopping slapd, deleting /var/lib/ldap/* and 
restoring slapadd the correctly exported ldif from ldapsearch first, 
however.  Thanks again!
