Okay, now I get the following error:

/usr/local/etc/openldap/schema/netmeeting2.schema: line 110: AttributeType not found: "comment"

..for the command:

/usr/local/libexec/slapd -d 11 -f /usr/local/etc/openldap/slapd.conf -u ldap &

*** begin slapd.conf ***
include         /usr/local/etc/openldap/schema/core.schema
include         /usr/local/etc/openldap/schema/cosine.schema
include         /usr/local/etc/openldap/schema/netmeeting2.schema
schemacheck     off
pidfile         /var/run/slapd.pid
database        shell
suffix          "objectclass=rtperson"
search          /usr/local/libexec/netmeeting.perl
add                     /usr/local/libexec/netmeeting.perl
modify          /usr/local/libexec/netmeeting.perl
delete          /usr/local/libexec/netmeeting.perl
*** end slapd.conf ***

I only added cosine.schema to this original from the NDK.  I installed openldap-2.1.25 also producing the original core.schema and all.
