           Summary: ldap is not running in a newly installed etch system
           Product: Skolelinux
           Version: etch-alpha
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: debian-edu-config
        AssignedTo: ronny@skolelinux.org
        ReportedBy: ronny@skolelinux.org

slapd is not running on a newly installed etch system

the reason is that our config expects slapd to run as root, but the new slapd
pacakge in etch expects it to run as the user openldap

workaround: in order to run as the user openldap one must

chown -R openldap /etc/ldap/ssl             #let slapd read the certificates
chown -R openldap:openldap /var/lib/ldap    #let slapd rw the the database files

mkdir /var/run/slapd                        #slapd needs to write a pid
chown openldap:openldap /var/run/slapd      
edit the pidfile line in /etc/ldap/slapd-sarge_debian-edu.conf
     to read "pidfile /var/run/slapd/slapd.pid"

i think that was it.

I am trying to apply these changes to debian-edu-config.
