Hi all,

Around 6 months ago I posted and contacted iPlanet about a VERY annoying 
bug in NS Directory 4.11/4.12.  The bug is related to indexing... every 
now and then an entire object's indexing will disappear.  I have tried 
several methods of editing entries on LDAP (ldapmodify, LDAP SDK, 
PerLDAP etc.) and in all cases the LDAP server is dropping indexes. 
NOTE: The equality index is okay and the data is there on the server 
(i.e. when I point directly at the entry and view it).. We have a large 
amount of data on the server and we are using 'User Defined' attributes 
- but this is really getting to me now... i've waited for months... 
iPlanet told me there would be a patch in mid-december and still nothing...

This bug is affecting us so much my management are already talking about 
moving to Active Directory (aaaggghhhh!)  -  It might be slower than 
iPlanet's directory server but at least indexing don't disappear as 
easily which is the most important thing...

Sort it out guys...
