Thanks for your response.
I know the default config is as you say, but I gave the command
-----------------------------------
[root at grover ldap]# slapadd -f /tmp/slapd.conf -l /tmp/ldif
bdb_monitor_db_open: monitoring disabled; configure monitor database to
enable
-#################### 100.00% eta none elapsed 26s spd 4.8
k/s
Closing DB...
-----------------------------------
I'm pretty sure the file slapd.conf was read by the program,
as the outcome was different.

But have you actually migrated an openLDAP setup from CentOS 5 to 6?
