The fact that you don't have one on your system doesn't mean it isn't provided by the project: http://www.openldap.org/devel/cvsweb.cgi/servers/slapd/slapd.conf?hideattic=1&sortbydate=0 (and, note, it is installed by default, see the 'install-conf' rule in http://www.openldap.org/devel/cvsweb.cgi/~checkout~/servers/slapd/Makefile.in?rev=1.197&hideattic=1&sortbydate=0) > A bit of > research revealed that slapd.conf has been deprecated. slapd.conf(5) has one occurrence of the word 'deprecated', in relation to 'authz-policy any'. slapd-config(5) doesn't make any such statement. I haven't seen any official communication about deprecation (even though Quanah has made statements on this list). > Is there a > quick-start guide anywhere that is up-to-date with this change? Assuming you didn't install from source, consult whoever provided you with OpenLDAP without a slapd.conf. Regards, Buchan
