Luke, Pierangelo,

I tested again Luke's patch with a new LDAP build from HEAD (08/08/2005)
and the SLAPI plugin worked as expected! My apologies for the false
alert.

Thanks to both of you for your great work and support.

Were both patches only applied to HEAD?
Could you please provide a patch against 2.3.5?

Many Thanks.
Sam
