I have LDAP server on a fedora core 5 which is running for more than 3 years without any update nor upgrade neither. So now I've to migate this LDAP on a new server with new Linux distribution (Debian Lenny 5.0.7 64 bits). Should I or do I need to use slapindex before I use slapcat to export in ldif file?

Nope. Just run slapcat with the old software, upgrade, move away the old database contents, slapadd the ldif back.

I would consider installing Debian squeeze though. It is very close to release and it has a much newer version of OpenLDAP, 2.4.23.
