Resolves: bug 227771
Bug Description: FHS: use sysconfdir (/etc) as config file location
Reviewed by: ???
Files: see diff
Branch: HEAD
Fix Description: After much deliberation, we have decided that it is ok 
that our dynamic config files are under /etc/fedora-ds/slapd-instance.
 So the config_dir will be /etc/fedora-ds/slapd-instance and the 
security and schema files will go there as well.  Since the FHS is 
ambiguous about this issue, and it will be very confusing if the 
configuration files are not under /etc, and there are some agents 
(webmin, cfengine) that do "dynamically" modify config files under /etc, 
this outweighs any considerations about having the server using it's 
config file like an "ascii database".
In addition, the presence of repl-monitor-cgi causes rpm to complain, 
and since we only support CGIs in the Admin Server, this file has been 
removed from the core fedora-ds package.
Platforms tested: RHEL4, FC6
Flag Day: no
Doc impact: no
