Fair enough. 'man slapd.conf' for Openldap 2.1.16 (I can't go back to
previous versions) gives:

# We serve small clients that do not handle referrals,
# so handle remote lookups on their behalf.

database  ldap
suffix    ""
uri       ldap://ldap.some-server.com/
lastmod   off

Note that the suffix is empty, should presumably (don't know for sure)
be the same as your local one.

Best,

Tony
