[gentoo-user] openldap overlays
Hi all, I've installed the 2.3.21 ~x86 build of openldap in order to use the translucent overlay. In the source this is located under openldap-2.3.21/servers/slapd/overlays/translucent.c but it doesn't appear to be built - I have no translucent.la or translucent.so. How can I build this overlay? --- Chris Covington IT Plus One Health Management 75 Maiden Lane Suite 801 NY, NY 10038 646-312-6269 http://www.plusoneactive.com -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Well it's just as hard to remember that the MBR is on the floppy or the cdrom as it is on the SCSI disk.

Re: [gentoo-user] No HTML in posts?
The bottom line is that on any technical mailing list, it's tradition not to use HTML. You can't argue against it using technical reasons, people aren't going to change their minds about it. And there might not even be strong technical reasons for it anymore: just about all browsers and email clients support HTML now, including pine and mutt, just about everyone has a high-speed connection, servers have faster connections, disks and capacity, etc. but it is the tradition. Heed the proverb "When in Rome..." - to challenge that tradition is to go against community values. --- Chris Covington IT Plus One Health Management 75 Maiden Lane Suite 801 NY, NY 10038 646-312-6269 http://www.plusoneactive.com -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
