The apt-get install slapd ldap-utils does not prompt for ah administrator password. The /etc/ldap/slapd.conf is not created, because it is using the /etc/ldap/slapd.d/cn=config approach. I have not been able to find any help on the web for this approach. I am looking for just a standard configuration. The instructions to configure the eXist XML database are at http://exist-db.org/ldap-security.html. I do not care how I get to a working configuration, but I do need to get one working.
