I moved from slapd.conf to cn=config using options -F and -f (forgot the exact command but I think it was slapadd). I had a schema called EnergySec.ldif that was migrated. It showed up as /usr/local/etc/openldap/slapd.d/cn=config/cn=schema/cn={5}EnergySec.ldif following the conversion.
However, when I tried modifying the schema using ADS and then ldapmodify, I would get a error 32: No such object. With slapd in foreground mode, I found that it was trying to access the lower-case version of the file:
ldif_read_file: no entry file "/usr/local/etc/openldap/slapd.d/cn=config/cn=schema/cn={5}energysec.ldif"
Since UNIX is case-sensitive, this obviously failed (the import kept the case as EnergySec.ldif).
I fixed it by manually renaming the ldif file to lower case and changing the dn and cn inside the file. That was pretty hairy and I hope I didn't break anything else but it semes to work.
