Hi Peter!

It depends what exactly you mean by "schema file". In case you mean a traditional schema file as opposed to an LDIF file, you will need to convert the file into LDIF format first, then in most cases you have to to some manual editing of the LDIF file to make sure your schema objects end up in the correct part of your LDAP tree.

The canonical method of converting any traditional OpenLDAP config files into LDIF format for cn=config is to use slaptest with -f and -F options set accordingly; see: http://www.zytrax.com/books/ldap/ch6/slapd-config.html

Not very obvious, but once you know it, it's simple.
