Talking about LDAP, I have a problem with the SLAPD package (both Woody and
Sid)

Am I dumb or is there some kind of problem with that package...

Shell# apt-get install slapd
(installs 2.0.14-1.1 on Sid and 2.0.14-1 on Woody)

The configure script ask the usual info (root tree, auto, admin name & password,
etc..) and the installation ends normally.

I can't start slapd (/etc/init.d/slapd start). Having a look a this init
script shows that if "/etc/ldap/slapd.conf" is missing the script exits.
Having a look at "/etc/ldap" shows a "slapd.conf.in"... (strange) and
looking inside it shows that some configuration parameters contain TOKENS
instead of real values...
ie:

Directory "@DIRECTORY@" (instead of "/var/lib/ldap")

The "Admin" CN is shown as "@ADMIN@" instead of the real
CN "cn=admin,ou=People,dc=myserver"...

Of course, fixing these issues in the config file and relaunching slapd
does not solve the problem ! I can then connect to the LDAP server but the
tree is empty :( (I bet it have something to do with the TOKENS not being
correctly substituted in some place of a post-install script of the package)

Is there something I'm definitely doing wrong or is there a problem with
the package itself ?? Any help appreciated... I can't switch to Potato
version of LDAP as its definitely too old...

Thanks a lot in advance.
