I've been cloning servers with LDAP server set up on them and the process has been working fine but when I recently queried the version with slapd -V, the hostname of the original server shows up. I tried re-running make and make install with no luck. How can I change the hostname that shows up on the version query without redoing the whole installation?

You don't, and why do you care? All it is showing is the name of the host that OpenLDAP was compiled on.

it really is a complete non issue which has zero actual impact on anything, but if it bothers your sense of style, build openldap on a computer that has a generic/neutral hostname.
