I'm interested in setting up openldap on my local OpenBSD 3.7 box so I
can have a central address book.

I installed the openldap-server-2.2.23.tgz package. (It required the
openldap-client-2.2.23.tgz package as well.)

I also installed the db-4.2.52p2.tgz package.

I recursively copied the /usr/local/share/examples/openldap to
/etc/openldap

I edited the /etc/openldap/slapd.conf and /etc/openldap/ldap.conf files
according to the quick-start directions at www.openldap.org

Now, when I try to start /usr/local/libexec/slapd, I get "Unrecognized
database type (bdb)"

Does anyone know of an openldap howto specific to recent versions of
OpenBSD?

Figure out what database types it _is_ configured to support, and use
one of those? I think, but can't check right now, that there's an option
that'll show you which ones it has support for. Alternatively, you can
install from ports and compile in bdb support yourself.

or set database type=ldbm, that seems to be more native
