Right now, slappasswd does add a trailing '\n'; according to Howard's change, it doesn't if -g is used. I'd rather let it add '\n' always, and use -n to strip '\n', much like echo. Regular users wouldn't notice it anyway, as -g is not available in RE23 (yet?). p. Ing. Pierangelo Masarati Responsabile Open Solution OpenLDAP Core Team SysNet s.n.c.
