Only if you move the slapd.d dir will the slapd.conf file be used.
Read the admin guide, it's worth it.

You edit it. You can generate a value with slappasswd.
Depending on the configuration method you edit the text file slapd.conf or use ldapmodify to alter the value of attribute 'olcRootPW' in the accompanying database entry in cn=config.
Ciao, Michael.
There is no slapd.conf file at this point. So, I did try to use ldapmodify, however authentication is required to make this running and this is the problem I am having, I don't have the rootpw.
Can I go back to slapd.conf and put a new password there and restart the daemon? Will it modify the config database?
TIA
Daniel
