behaviour change with releases >= v2.0.8



Gents,

Been a while.  Had a couple things to report:

I have four LDAP servers with a null root. (suffix "") All OpenLDAP
versions <= 2.0.7 did just fine with it.  Any recent release complains
whenever I try to import anything underneath that entry. (a dn of
nothing imports just fine, but everything else won't import because the
"database is not configured to hold" such entries) Is this a bug? Or is
it just a stricter conformance to the RFC's?

Whenever I try to perform a ModifyDN operation on a record that has
children, the ModifyDN succeeds in modifying the DN of that record,
however, all the children a alienated and no longer appear underneath
the changed record.  Is this a bug or something that hasn't been
implemented.  I know section 4.9 of RFC2251 says that ModifyDN's can
occur on records that have children, but it doesn't specify what happens
to the children.

regards,
David Storey
