Subject: documenting that dynamic lists/groups overlays are mutually exclusive with the memberof overlay

Full_Name: Ted C. Cheng
Version: trunk
OS: Linux
URL: ftp://ftp.openldap.org/incoming/
Submission from: (NULL) (76.174.253.197)


Document enhancement request:

Dynamic lists/groups do not involve group entry modification. As a result, they
cannot be used with the memberof overlay.

It would be great to document explicitly, man pages and admin guide, that
dynamic lists/groups overlays and memberof overlay are mutually exclusive.

Would the above text, in one single paragraph, be good enough for the
documentation?
