sorry to hear that, but you should check how you install openldap-server if you install it using YUM, then you should use `service slapd start/stop` to control the process.

i recommend you become familiar with the system and then check your problem.

why stopping slapd "/etc/init.d/slapd stop" doesn't free the PID?

This is out of scope of this mailing list. Check with your distribution "support".
