The docs are incomplete. slapd or slaptest will always work; the other tools (slapadd/slapcat/slapindex) don't actually invoke the config database's startup routine unless you're explicitly operating on the config backend therefore the conversion won't occur in general. -- -- Howard Chu Chief Architect, Symas Corp. http://www.symas.com Director, Highland Sun http://highlandsun.com/hyc/ Chief Architect, OpenLDAP http://www.openldap.org/project/
