Have you tried ldap.conf or ldaprc "URI" setting?

Hi to all,
I just installed openSUSE 15.5 and the actual symas packages. After installing OpenLDAP I could start slapd but "ldapsearch -Y external -H ldapi:///" is giving me a "can't connect to ldapserver"
I found out that the ldap-socket on SUSE is (the same a on Debian systems) in /var/symas/run/ldapi and I can see:
ss -lp | grep slapd u_str LISTEN 0 2048 /var/symas/run/ldapi 15214 * 0 users:(("slapd",pid=1431,fd=9))
but doing a ldapsearch: provider01:~ # ldapmodify -Y EXTERNAL -H ldapi:/// -d 5 ldap_url_parse_ext(ldapi:///) ldap_create ldap_url_parse_ext(ldapi:///??base) ldap_sasl_interactive_bind: user selected: EXTERNAL ldap_int_sasl_bind: EXTERNAL ldap_new_connection 1 1 0 ldap_int_open_connection ldap_connect_to_path ldap_new_socket: 3 ldap_connect_to_path: Trying /run/slapd/ldapi ldap_connect_timeout: fd: 3 tm: -1 async: 0 ldap_ndelay_on: 3 ldap_close_socket: 3 ldap_msgfree ldap_err2string ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s: Can't contact LDAP server (-1)
You can see, that ldapsearch is looking in /run/slapd/ for the socket. How can I change this?
I tested with setting a link: ln -s /var/symas/run/ldapi /run/slapd/
and ldapseach wit "external" is working. But this was only a test. After rebooting the system the link is gone.
So how can I either change the behavior of the ldap-commands or changing the path where the socket will be stored?
Thank's for any help
