[Samba] Migrating from Centos 5 NT4 style to Centos 7 issues

Hi Alberto,

I currently don't have an OpenLDAP server running, but let's try it 
anyway. :-)

Can you make sure that there is no /etc/openldap/slapd.d/ directory? If 
it exists, delete it - otherwise your slapd.conf is not used. You can 
later convert your slapd.conf into the directory-style configuration if 
you want.

* Does there anything exist in this directory? If yes, delete it.
* Restore your DB_CONFIG file.
* Start slapd to create the initial database files.
* Stop slapd again. slapadd works offline.

Just to make sure that the command uses your config:
# slapadd -l mydomain.ldif -f /etc/openldap/slapd.conf

Do you have multiple databases configured in slapd.conf? If yes, 
temporarily remove the ones you don't need for the import.

Other than that, if your slapd.conf isn't mixed with an existing slapd.d 
directory, it might help to see the slapd.conf

If the previous hints do not help, you can send me an email off-list 
with your slapd.conf and an LDIF file that contains the a few top level 
entries. Then I can have a look tomorrow evening.

Marc
