Hmm... it seems related: $ slapd_db_recover blah usage: db_recover [-ceVv] [-h home] [-P password] [-t [[CC]YY]MMDDhhmm[.SS]] (I am assuming it is related because the useage line refers to "db_recover" and not "slapd_db_recover".) However, they are not identical: $ ll /usr/bin/db_recover -r-xr-xr-x 1 root root 8704 Feb 21 2005 /usr/bin/db_recover $ ll /usr/sbin/slapd_db_recover -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 8932 Aug 12 2006 /usr/sbin/slapd_db_recover Obviously, the difference may be superficial. But, I'd still like to know where the "slapd_db_*" apps come from. BTW, I run CentOS 4.4 and the rpm came from the centos repo: http://isoredirect.centos.org/centos/4.4/os/i386/CentOS/RPMS/openldap-ser vers-2.2.13-6.4E.i386.rpm
My guess would be it is the version of db_recover that matches the version of BDB that OpenLDAP was compiled with.
For example, you cannot use the BDB 4.3 db_recover command to recover a BDB 4.2 database, etc. So they are simply trying to protect the user by having them use "slapd_*" named BDB commands so that things are known to match up.
