Thank you Quanah for the response!
Makes sense.

One more question:
under: /opt/symas/etc/openldap/schema/README
It says that ppolicy is
ppolicy.schema          Password Policy Schema (work in progress)

If i'm not mistaken, this would be the new ppolicy10 , yes?
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-behera-ldap-password-policy-10

Thanks!
