Well, as I said, it's been in the code, behind an #ifdef, for quite a while. I think it lacks a specification, and there are quite a few places where it's not being handled, mostly because the specification is missing. > > Ciao, Michael. > > P.S.: I have already added support for it in web2ldap (if the server > supports it). > http://mstroeder.homeip.net:1760/web2ldap/conninfo?ldap:///dc=openldap,dc=org I've used it, for instance, in a custom overlay to migrate entries between distributed DSAs that are presented as a unique system by a "smart" proxy, to allow cross-tree renaming preserving entryUUID, createTimestamp and creatorsName. But then we're using HEAD code most of the time, and I expect it to be released when we get to production... Ing. Pierangelo Masarati Responsabile Open Solution SysNet s.n.c.
