[K12OSN] server won;t start

[Krsnendu dasa]

I reinstalled smbldap and the db config file was recreated. It seems
that when you delete the contents of /var/lib/ldap it deletes the db
config file and slapadd doesn't recreate it. So I made a copy of it to
copy back if I need to reset the system again.

I'll try restoring up with an older backup and if all else fails I
will try starting fresh and building my userbase again. I just need to
make sure that the numbers match the users. I only have my staff
members on at the moment (less than 10 users to sort out). The
students can be added later when things are working.
