Thank you.

Dear list members,
i am reading the OpenLDAP Software 2.3 Administrator's Guide. I saw that for this version, OpenLDAP keeps its configuration inside Ldap service itself.
I could understand how it could be done: It seemed to me an chicken-egg problem? After just installation, how could i "tell" openldap daemon server to access this initial configuration file? Where do i get this file from? Does it come from the tarball distributed?
Could you give the way i should "walk" ?
write a minimal slapd.conf than execute slaptest -f<path-to-file> -F<path-to-directory>, the diretory name must be slapd.d. man slapd(8), man slaptest(8)
