Use slaptest instead.
Oh, right, I missed that one. Perhaps this is the missing piece in the
docs? It's not obvious how to explain it, though. I'm not sure the
sentence below is satisfying.
-F slapd-config-directory
Specifies the slapd configuration directory. The
default is /usr/pkg/share/examples/openldap/slapd.d. 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 before slapd starts regular
operations. slaptest(8) can also be used to just perform
the conversion.
in slapd(8) in HEAD, the last sentence does say:
"All of the slap tools that use the config options observe this same
behavior."
Not just in HEAD. That text has been there since May/June 2005, 2.3 onward.
OK. Well, there's no excuse for people missing it then. A bit of thought
would lead them to slaptest. Or do we have to actually say slaptest.
