Just to clarify :)

If you have "directory /var/lib/openldap-data" in your slapd.conf, then that's
where DB_CONFIG should be. Also, many options do not take effect if you add
them *after* the database has been created. You should start with an empty
directory, place DB_CONFIG there and then load your data.
