Obsolete command. Use slapadd if you want to load data before starting
the server, or (better) use 'ldapmodify -a' to add data through
protocol. Where did you find the reference to ldif2ldbm?

Depends on how you want it to run. You show
/usr/local/lib/libexec/slapd being run later on - this is an OK way to
start slapd, though you may want to specify some options (e.g. if you
create a user/group to own the database files, or if you want to bind
to more than just the default port 389)

I suspect you have not set up a SASL user with saslpasswd2. If you do
not want to use SASL bind, you must specify the -x flag, and probably
-w or -W as well.

See documentation for pam_ldap and nss_ldap - these are not part of
OpenLDAP but are documented at
http://www.padl.com/Contents/OpenSourceSoftware.html

Bad mix. I don't think you should be using the latest db and sasl libs
with openldap-2.0.27. Why not switch to openldap-2.1.5 ?
