Same result here. I copied the files to /etc/ssl/certs and /etc/ssl/private, modified /etc/ldap/slapd.conf to show the new places of the files, /home/ubuntu/.ldaprc was also modified to point to /etc/ssl/certs/ca.cert. There wasn't group ssl-certs, so I created it, (vigr, vigr -s, GID 114) and added user openldap to the group. The directory /etc/ssl/private was 700 root:root, so I changed it to 750 root:ssl-cert, otherwise slapd cannot start. Running slapd by "/etc/init.d/slapd start" doesn't show EXTERNAL. slapd in that case is started with group and user openldap. Even when slapd was run manually with group ssl-cert there wasn't EXTERNAL protocol listed as supported. id for user openldap shows groups openldap and ssl-cert.
