Re: Migrating from 2.3 to 2.4 branch.
Quanah,
Thanks for your response.
I don't want to waste your, or the lists time. The problem I had was
that there were attributes in my slapcat'd ldif file that were not
specified in my new slapd.conf file for 2.4.
For example?
Rather than have you guys hold my hand through each step I'd like to
find some documentation as to what changes I can expect to have to
make (noting there is a ppolicy and a ppolicy-2.4).
Well, if the docs aren't there, that's my job. We have:
http://www.openldap.org/doc/admin24/appendix-changes.html
And
http://www.openldap.org/doc/admin24/appendix-upgrading.html
Needs to have more info in it.
Sounds like the ppolicy variation is a distro packaging issue and
nothing to do with OpenLDAP.
The other thing to note is that the "Manager" in my slapd2.3 config
(on gentoo) is dn: cn=Manager,dc=example,dc=com" - whereas with my new
setup (on Debian) it's defaulting to "cn=admin,dc=example,dc=com."
Again, distro issue. Nothing to do with the OpenLDAP project.
If possible I'd like to set up 2.4 to simply mirror the old directory
using syncrepl and populate it in that way (if possible).
However, please tell me if you feel I'm wasting the list members' time
with this.
Nope, as I said, it will help with docs. We can't be expected to solve
various distro packaging differences (gentoo and debian) though, and
that will come down to your sysadmin skills.
You could easily start a thread on openldap-technical which is for more
general chats related to OpenLDAP, but we don't really want to help with
the differences between how distros package up OpenLDAP
