If you can demonstrate that slapd(8), in response to a single delete request, removed multiple objects, you should report a bug (using the issue tracking system). To demonstrate, just use a sequence of ldapsearch(1) (to show present objects), ldapdelete(1) (to send a single delete request), ldapsearch(1) (to show multiple objects previously present have been remove). I note also, if you can demonstrate that the a request to delete an alias (by specification of the alias name) results in the deletion of the aliased object, you should also report a bug. You should ignore the ManageDIT control comment. ManageDIT control (also known as the Relax control) use is unnecessary in removing of alias object. Kurt >TIA, >Dave
