I found it before getting a answer :

slapd is logging on local4.debug and local4.debug by default so I had to
configured my syslogd that way :

# cat /etc/syslog.conf
*.debug;local4.none /var/adm/messages
*.debug @loghost
*.emerg *

local4.info;local4.debug /var/adm/slapd

Subject: syslog filter howto ?

Hi SunManagers,

syslogd is running on my Solaris 7 box.

I have an OpenLDAP slapd configured and running (starting line :
/soft/openldap/libexec/slapd -h "ldaps:/// ldap:///")

/etc/syslog.conf is set to this :

# cat /etc/syslog.conf
#
*.debug /var/adm/messages
*.debug @loghost
*.emerg *
#

The problem is that slapd is logging a lot on the syslogs and I would like
to filter stuff with the syslod and to put it in another log ex :
/var/adm/slapd

But syslogd doesn't seems to have other filter types except the facility or
level.

How can I filter slapd logging ?
How can I know which facility.level a log to syslog is ?

Example of current syslog :
Sep 10 11:09:37 ub1981wfx01 slapd[27111]: conn=6 op=3 SRCH attr=uid
userPassword uidNumber gidNumber cn homeDirectory loginShell gecos
description objectClass
Sep 10 11:09:37 ub1981wfx01 slapd[27111]: conn=6 op=3 SEARCH RESULT tag=101

Sep 10 11:09:51 ub1981wfx01 slapd[27111]: conn=10 fd=22 closed
