as I had also written in a previous mail just moments ago earlier in the 
queue ----

A 2.4.x database already established (as soon as 2.4 was run) may not be 
compatible with 2.3.x (not verified).

the missing rc.conf values to start 2.3?

and OpenLDAP won't log to ANYTHING until configured to do so.

I'm going from memory on this last peice ------
in slapd.conf, insert a "loglevel 256" statement anywhere before the 
database definitions
in /etc/syslog.conf define before the middle chunk of comments (seems 
it's picky) you need to add EITHER (which I think is the latter of these 
two):
slapd.*   /var/log/slapd.log                -OR-
local4.*   /var/log/slapd.log

touching (creating) /var/log/slapd.log to create the file,
restarting syslogd
restart slapd

That should start logging.  Now why it's not any easier to setup, I 
don't know.

HTH.
