When working with OpenLDAP 2.0.7 and Netscape Directory 4.12, some odd results
occur.

ldapdelete does not work right.

Given a cn=testcarl in a file called "test.txt", the following:

ldapdelete -f test.txt 

will fail with error code 32 (no such object). Even specifying the full DN will
not work. The same occurs for ldapsearch -f. However, ldapmodify and ldapadd do
not exhibit this behavior. 

The result is that the search degenerates to objectclass=*, which returns the
entire LDAP database. If I do a ldapsearch from the command line (as in,
ldapsearch "cn=testcarl" it will work, and return the right results).

This is more a file-based problem then anything to do with NSCP 4.12, but I
wanted to mention that I am using this combination quite successfully.
