Hi,
I am trying to see what is the best and recommended way of deploying/starting ldap, OLC or conf file based? i was in the impression that conf file based is easy and more controllable approach than OLC?
slapd.conf is deprecated, and support for it will be removed in a future release. It is recommended taht new deployments use cn=config. I would say "easy and more controllable" are not measurable, nor are they relevant. I find cn=config to be trivially easy, for example, and allows me to execute much better control over my deployments. YMMV.
