Manually editing slapd.d files is the surest way of causing a problem

OK, understood!
Obvious approach:
slapcat -n0 -F old/slapd.d > config.ldif
edit config.ldif
slapadd -n0 -F new/slapd.d -l config.ldif
test using new/slapd.d
deploy...
OK, I see. Valuable info.
I would note that OpenLDAP 2.5 (when released) adds a "slapmodify" command
per my request. It allows you to do offline modifications of cn=config in
a way similar to ldapmodify. This will also keep the CRC checksum intact.
