It seems regardless my changes, I still die here:
I'm not sure about your error, but I found the best way to get started with back-config was mentioned in the slapd man page "If both -f and -F are specified, the config file will be read and converted to config directory format and written to the specified directory." I started with a slightly modified slapd.conf, ran slapd -f path/to/slapd.conf -F path/to/slapd.d to get a set of ldif config files. then I removed slapd.conf. the ldif config files seem complete in that they contain what appear to be all of the settings, with default values if not provided in the slapd.conf. I think this would be useful to add to the admin guide. Dave
