Issue ID: 10432
Summary: filter with typo'ed attribute name causes 0 results
Product: OpenLDAP
Version: 2.6.7
Hardware: x86_64
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Keywords: needs_review
Severity: normal
Priority: ---

Here is a filter for posixAccount entries missing the sshPublicKey attribute:
```
(&(objectClass=posixAccount)(!(sshPublicKey=*)))
```
It works normally.
If I made a typo and instead searched for entries missing some other bogus
attribute name:
```
(&(objectClass=posixAccount)(!(ssshPublicKey=*)))
```
I get 0 results.
None of my posixAccounts have an `ssshPublicKey` attribute, so I would think
that the right half of my filter should be always true. So every posixAccount
should be returned. Am I wrong to think that?
Note: the `!(foo=*)` syntax comes from
