You probably missed the rc.conf entry, described in the message that was
printed when you installed the port. Specifically:
In order to run the LDAP server, you need to edit
%%PREFIX%%/etc/openldap/slapd.conf
to suit your needs and add the following lines to /etc/rc.conf:
slapd_enable="YES"
slapd_flags='-h "ldapi://%2fvar%2frun%2fopenldap%2fldapi/
ldap://0.0.0.0/"'
slapd_sockets="/var/run/openldap/ldapi"
Then start the server with
%%PREFIX%%/etc/rc.d/slapd start
or reboot.
Where %%PREFIX%% is presumably /usr/local.
