Sounds like you're mostly on the right track, but I didn't hear mention of compiling with a suitable OPENLDAP_FD_SETSIZE. Are your CPPFLAGS set accordingly?
Klemens,
Few weeks ago I had a similar issue, I found this thread very useful: http://www.sunmanagers.org/pipermail/summaries/2005-March/006226.html but at the end the issue seemed to come from avahi daemon. I'm not familiar with avahi but the config had:
[rlimits] #rlimit-as= rlimit-core=0 rlimit-data=4194304 rlimit-fsize=0 rlimit-nofile=30 rlimit-stack=4194304 rlimit-nproc=3
The machine restarted and started avahi(it was stopped before but not disabled) and when ldap started to get some connections I received the same output: Feb 18 00:49:05 ldap01 slapd[3704]: warning: cannot open /etc/hosts.deny: Too many open files
Hope that helps.
