Hi Howard,

I'm just wondering why OpenLdap returns a noSuchAttribute when we try to delete a non-existent value from an existent attribute...

The 4511 RFCs says nothing about this specific case, even if the noSuchAttribute error code says : "Indicates that the named entry does not contain the specified attribute or attribute value."

We currently don't returns an error, based on the fact that removing a non-existent value does not break the server, and will always be successfull, as the value will be removed (well, as it does not exist :).

Should we change ADS to generate an error or not ? Does Kurt said something specific about this case? I didn't found anything related on google...

Thanks !
