Just delete the entry (e.g. delete cn=userRoot,cn=ldbm 
database,cn=plugins,cn=config).  You will have to do some sort of 
recursive deletion to remove all of the child entries.  I think this is 
what the GUI does - just check the access logs for the server after 
deleting the database in the console.
