I suggest you try to use "slapcat > olddn.ldif". After, you can open the ldif file with your prefered text editor(example: vi) and change all entries to the new dn.
That would certainly be a simple operation for changing the dn suffix globally, but changing from cn to uid would require manually editing every single entry. Is that really the only way?

Writing some perl to do that using regular expressions would be fairly simple. Or perhaps awk if you're inclined.
