Hello All,
I'm currently working on migrating a directory that is currently running on OpenLDAP 1.x to OpenLDAP 2.x. Is there any online documents which detail how to convert the old schemas (which are on ldif format) to the format used by 2.x? I tried to google for that but I could not find much info on the subject. Currently the settings, acls and schemas are all present on ldif format. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks a lot, Diego Lima

There is no way to transform old slapd.at.conf and slapd.oc.conf into *.schema files. But unless you have defined private attribute types and private object classes there are chances that the old attribute types and objectclasses are defined a a schema file already. With regard to the database you should try to dump the data with ldbmcat to a file and modify the data manually.
