I'm not up to speed on the differences between 32 and 64-bit linux but I
do know there are parallel sets of libs for certain purposes.  Is there a
/usr/lib64/openldap/slapd or similar on the system?

If slapd has been started by a system startup script, it's likely that it
was invoked with the full path.  In that case, a 'ps aux' should be
enough.  If not, I'd start tracing via the startup script in
/etc/rc.d/init.d (or the Suse equivalent...).  

If the slocate package is not already installed (Some Suse versions don't
install it) it would be worth installing.  You can then use 'locate
<filename>' to search the system at speed.
