    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.
