Description openldap@stompro.org 2012-06-05 17:04:39 UTC
Full_Name: Josh Stompro
Version: HEAD
OS: Debian
URL: ftp://ftp.openldap.org/incoming/josh-stompro-120605.patch
Submission from: (NULL) (216.239.28.98)


I uploaded a patch to openldap incoming ftp server name
josh-stompro-120605.patch.  This patch updates the man page for the MemberOf
Overlay to include cn=config style instructions, and update the config option
names so they comply with the cn=config style.

I had to resort to google to figure out how to add this overlay since I'm not
all that familiar with the cn=config format yet, and the documentation doesn't
make it easy to figure out.  I found an article on serverfault[1] that had the
examples I needed to get it to work.  This is my attempt to make it easier for
the next individual.

I would be happy to change the formatting to get this patch in more 
acceptable shape.  If there are some specific formatting rules that I 
didn't follow, or a specific man page I should try to emulate please let 
me know and I'll work on it.
Thanks
Josh Stompro
