RE: OpenLDAP 2.2.10 locked up



Yes, I am using ldapadd, not slapadd.

It does make me a bit nervous.  When I go into production, I'd like my
servers to last a little longer. :)  But since 2.2.10 is not the stable
release, I can understand.

So if there is nothing else to check, I'll go ahead and restart the server
and see if it finishes.
