No, it's an openldap server.  On Ubuntu 10.10, the slapd.conf is no
longer installed/used, apparently.

I've already done:
        To get those logs to syslog, you'd need to add to syslog.conf:
        # Log Openldap stuff (ldap servers only)
        local4.*   -/var/log/openldap

But the idea to use ldapmodify sounds intersting and I will go checkon
how to do this now.

I very much appreciate your help.
