Newlines what ?  Does your mailer have problems wrapping text ?
I've never had a complaint from anyone else.

No, I am using 2.0.21 but I finally did get it to work by reverting 
to unencrypted transactions on port 389.  I cannot seem to get the 
LDAP over SSL stuff to work.  Must be something to do with certs. 

I will have to get the security sorted out as I am not to happy about
leaving it open.  I also want to tie squid, apache and radius into
using the LDAP database for authentication and finally find something
that I can use to nicely manage the users and groups now in LDAP.

One other question.  From memory, in NIS we can control what groups of 
users can log into a machine using netgroups and by prefixing the 
username/group with +.  Is there a way of doing this with LDAP ?  Ie, all
users are in the ldap directory and I have two machines which I would like
to restrict a subset of users to.
