Hi, I have a standard Debian install of slapd that was apparently automatically upgraded/updated from using slapd.conf to using olc. Now I would like to view settings before editing them so I tried some simple ldapsearch queries but all the things I try return empty results.

How do I get to see the contents of cn=config?

Things I have tried: ldapsearch -b cn=config -D cn=admin,dc=mydomain -W ldapsearch -x cn=config ldapsearch -D cn=admin,dc=mydomain -W cn=config

You're probably missing the config backend. I added this to the end of my slapd.conf before conversion to slapd.d:

database config rootdn "cn=admin,dc=example,dc=org"

See the manpage for slapd-config for details.
