If you are on a linux or un*x box, you should know how to read man pages. It 
definetely helps. If you're on a MS Windows machine, no man can help :-P

Well, that's the point most people on this list are trying to make. Read the 
Docs ! And, slapd.access(5).

Unfortunately, the docs don't tell all, but there seem to be a tremendous 
number of people, who don't even bother trying. General stance is not to 
spend time on those people. Not only on this list, but on many lists.
