Full_Name: Emmanuel Lecharny Version: 2.4.40 OS: URL: ftp://ftp.openldap.org/incoming/ Submission from: (NULL) (2a01:e34:ec0b:b180:cd03:5409:b5fe:aa99) The slapd-config man page content on the olcServerID parameter is a bit confusing : 'Specify an integer ID from 0 to 4095 for this server (limited to 3 hexadecimal digits). The ID may also be specified as a hexa‐ decimal ID by prefixing the value with "0x".'... If it's an integer, like 4095, why is it limited to 3 hexadecimal digits, when 4 digits would be required ? If you have to enter FFF for 4095, then should we add the 0x prefix ? All in all, it's hard for me to know if those values are accepted : - 4095 - FFF also is : - 100 considered as 100 (decimal) or 256 (decimal) ?
100 would clearly be decimal 0x100 would be hex 0xFFF would be 4095 Fairly straight forward, but I've tweaked the man page to fix the wording.
