I use ldapi - when possible - with 2.2.5.

The following worked with 2.1.25, in my startup script (o.k., it's
actually a bit otherwise, but this is it essentially):

slapd -u ldap -h 'ldap:/// ldaps:///
ldapi://%2Fusr%2Flocal%2Fvar%2Fldapi/????x-mod=0777'

But it don't work no more with 2.2.5, - seems to be broken in that
respect.

So I just force it; in the same startup script, after the above line:

/bin/chmod 4777 /usr/local/var/ldapi

Easy as that.

Mind you, the thought of that 4777 socket is nauseous at the least, but
there you go,
