Try this as root: cd /opt/fedora-ds/alias ; su fedora-ds -c 
"../shared/bin/certutil -N -d . -P slapd-dirs-"

No, it's not.  There is something really weird going on.  The system 
error above is 2, which is
#define ENOENT           2      /* No such file or directory */
I'm not sure what file or directory it is complaining about.  The 
directory server is supposed to create the key/cert db if they do not 
exist.  The directory names and permissions all look correct.
