I want to perform a custom installation of FDS, and when it asks for the ldif

extend the schema, and add the entries dumped from my old openldap directory.
Without extending the schema, the import will fail because every entry
violates the default schema. However, turning schema checking off leaves some
small chance that there is something in my directory that shouldn't be there
or isn't as it should be.
I have another installation of FDS on a test machine, and I used the GUI to
add my extra objects and attributes, and I tried copying the resulting ldif
to the server I'm now trying to install (minus operational stuff), but the
install ignored the cn=schema part of my LDIF file (the part holding the
schema extensions), and subsequently, all of the entries failed.
Has anyone done this? Any clues? Is there somewhere I can place a 99user.ldif
file *before* running setup that will cause the slapd instance to use it the
first time it starts up?
I'm not sure if there's a 'clean' way to do what you want (there may be,
I'm not terribly familiar with the details of installation), however I
suspect
that the reason it's not working for you is that the ldif file is
_imported_,
and not added via LDAP. You can't import schema entries because they
don't live in an importable back end. They need to be added via an
LDAP connection.
