Here is the script I came up with to do just what you are talking about.

Personally, I would run db_recover to clean up the BDB environment before
removing the files in the database directory. This is particularly
important if you are using shared memory segments for part of the BDB
environment.
rm /data/duckpond.dol/*
# Starts slapd
/etc/init.d/ldap start
# Imports dump.ldif, which is a ldif file, into the new database to
# populate it
/usr/sbin/slapadd -l /data/openldaptemp/dump.ldif
You should never run slapadd while slapd's running, the above lines are
incorrect.
