Gotcha. I didn't see any reference to any sort of "vacuum" and a db_recover didn't fix it either. Should've included this info before, but this is v2.3.11 on BDB 4.2.52.4 plus OpenLDAP's patch. If it helps, this isn't yet *terribly* critical for me. This directory goes into production on 11/24 and even then, I've got a dual syncrepl/heartbeat setup, so I can flip/slapcat/delete/slapadd/yadayada with minimal downtime if it gets to be an issue post-production. But it'd be nice to not have to explain this to the boss; I'm getting tired of whiteboard diagrams of the whole thing. :) Thanks, John -- John Madden UNIX Systems Engineer Ivy Tech Community College of Indiana [EMAIL PROTECTED]
