I'm interested in this one too....so you use slapcat to basically export the whole ldap database to an ldif file. Can you simply import that file into an empty db if the original is lost?

My problem.
I had been using the phpldapadmin browser 1.0.1 to access the openldap database. Recently when I observed that when I logged onto the phpldapadmin browser, the features of the browser didnt show up as usually it appears.
So that was my problem as such now I am not able to use the GUI of the browser to do importing of the ldif files for adding new users to my database.
Now that the situation is urgent, I need to take a back up of my openldap database for the users data.
Please give me the full comand details, so that I can take a back up of my database safely before exploring the problem of phpldapadmin browser.
man slapcat(8)
