Hmm, the git log is pretty terse. This commit after intial import only
added comments:

Author: Pierangelo Masarati 
Date:   Sat Aug 25 16:02:43 2007 +

needs work: memberOf should not be replicated
 snip 

There's no reasoning why 'memberOf' should not be replicated.
IMHO it should be replicated to avoid the effects described in ITS#8613 [1].

Can anyone shed some light on this?

Ciao, Michael.

ISTR a few things would break when that was uncommented. Feel free to test it 
out though.

NO-USER-MODIFICATION for attribute type description memberOf

2019-07-11 Thread Michael Ströder
HI!

Currently attribute type description memberOf does not have
NO-USER-MODIFICATION.

memberof.c contains a commented line:

/* "NO-USER-MODIFICATION " */   /* add? */

But it's my understanding that if the memberof overlay is responsible
maintaining this attribute NO-USER-MODIFICATION should be added.

Any objections against adding it?

Ciao, Michael.
