Oki, using ldbmcat to extract the db, removing any lines that started
with [0-9] (to remove the indexing, and then using ldif2ldbm to create
the database again solved the problem. Thanx.

However, I got some strange messages in the syslog when doing ldif2ldbm...

May 26 13:04:01 donald ldif2id2children: no parent "/etc/localtime" of "OU=HOSTS,O=AIR2NET,C=SE" 
May 26 13:04:01 donald ldif2id2children: no parent "<D0>x<C2>*<D0>x<C2>*T,C=SE" of "OU=NETWORKS,O=AIR2NET,C=SE" 
May 26 13:04:03 donald ldif2index: bad line 13 in entry ending at line 13 ignored 

and some other stuff like that... And the produced ldif looks a little strange:

dn: nsLIProfileName=hakan.teleservice.com,ou=Roaming,o=Teleservice Vast AB,c=S
 E
objectclass: top
objectclass: nsLIProfile
nsliprofilename: hakan.teleservice.com
owner: uid=hakan.teleservice.com,ou=Users,o=Teleservice Vast AB,c=SE
creatorsname: uid=admin, ou=Users, o=Air2Net, c=SE
modifiersname: uid=admin, ou=Users, o=Air2Net, c=SE
createtimestamp: 20000404125457Z
modifytimestamp: 20000404125457Z

(Yes, the ' E' is really there like so... It should have been just after
the S on the above line, giving 'SE'...)

There's a lot of those. Cut lines...
