[Pkg-openldap-devel] Bug#628825: slapd: Failure to continue with authentication as configured.

Package: slapd
Version: 2.4.23-7
Severity: important


Firewalled system depending on anonymous bind to a
local replicated copy of the ldap database. After update to squeeze that 
functionality is removed. No warning given, and no documentation on a simple way to
restore it. Don't want to have passwords littered through configuration
files. If you're going to enforce a funky new configuration mechanism.
(cn=config) you can at least replicate the actual configuration.
