Lets try this out. Ubuntu apparently has gotten it together and fixed the issue with dpkg-reconfigure. Red Hat has not. And wouldn't you guess I am using Red Hat. I looked at the Red Hat documentation and it is exactly what I am fed up with. Convert slapd.conf is the wrong way.
Don't use RedHat's builds, they have numerous issues. You should start with the LTB project builds, or if you need support, contact Symas and use their builds.
