Hi Craig,

I have it solved.  What I had to do was rm the files in /var/lib/ldap leaving 
the replica dir intact and slapadd the files manually.  The setup should have 
been done through a script in a customized rpm file but had failed.  

Thank you for all of your help as it was sincerely appreciated.
