openldap install questions

I recently installed version openldap-2.4.23 on one of our Degreeworks servers as root. During the ./configure piece, I had to disable slapd because it complained about a BDB database. Every installation step after the configure piece, completed without a problem. I am uncertain how openldap is being utilized by the Degreeworks software but I think something may be wrong with the setup or configuration files. Did slapd need to be installed and what do I do about the BDB issue. I am trying to get single sign-on via Luminis to Degreeworks. The logins for luminis and degreeworks are not the same. Any help would be appreciated on setting up openldap to work properly with Degreeworks.

Thanks in advance for your time.
