Honestly, why they don't either: 1)Provide extra schema in LDIF format as well or 2)Provide a script that converts schema correctly for you. You can find pre-converted schema files here: http://svn.mandriva.com/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/packages/cooker/openldap-extra- schemas/current/SOURCES/ > Following instructions and learning seemed so much easier with 2.3 You can still use slapd.conf on 2.4 if you wish.
