Yep - except that the schema files for the attribute types used by the PADL migration 
tools are not included in the RH LDAP distribution - doh !

Anyway, I have hacked the migration scripts to remove the unknown attributes and the 
database build ok. 

The only problem I have now is getting pam_ldap to access the LDAP database. It tells 
me it cannot connect when I try to authenticate via LDAP.  I believe this must be 
something to do with /etc/ldap.conf or /etc/openldap/ldap.conf but I don't know which 
one yet.
