Good. You use the -n option, too. I guess I must be doing
something right ;-)

Ummm... Errrr... But ldif2ldbm doesn't exist in slapd:

[686] [snoopy:bam] ~/tmp/openldap >dpkg -c slapd_2.0.7-2_i386.deb | grep ldif
-rw-r--r-- root/root      1387 2001-02-26 17:15:56 ./usr/share/man/man5/ldif.5.gz

I think the required program is called slapadd, but slapadd doesn't
work; the error I get in the postinst script comes from slapadd:

snoopy:/var/lib/openldap# slapadd -l /ldif 
slapadd: could not parse entry (line=11)

where line 11 is the first blank line in the file.
