Under Centos 6.2 openldap uses the new cn=config configuration 
mechanism, and will ignore your slapd.conf configuration if that 
mechnism already exists.

I think this config is in /etc/openldap/slapd.d/

Try backing up and removing that folder, then your slapd.conf 
configuration will actually be read.
