[Pkg-openldap-devel] Bug#411413: slapd: Permit the use of the new configuration scheme

[Daniel 'NebuchadnezzaR' Dehennin]

Package: slapd
Version: 2.3.30-2
Severity: wishlist

Hello,

With slapd 2.3 there is a new configuration scheme entirely based on LDAP.
It permit to modify the configuration without restarting the server.

I personnaly do the conversion of my slapd.conf file with
# slapd -f /etc/ldap/slapd.conf -F /etc/ldap/slapd.d

Then I modify the init script and add a "-F /etc/ldap/slapd.d" to the SLAPD_OPTIONS.

Regards.
