Database format in OpenLDAP 1.1

[Alan Knowles <alan_k@HK.Super.NET>]

Hi, I just finished upgrading to 1.1, I did come across a few oddities?

It didn't seem to like my old gdm files in /usr/tmp so I had to do the
ldbmcat and ldif2ldbm to recreate the database.

The file extension seems to have changed to 'dbb' rather than
g(something), my slapd.conf is the same as the old one eg.
database ldbm

The default install for config files is now /usr/local/etc/openldap and
not /usr/local/etc/ldap (thats just for general info.)=>should this go
in FAQomatic on OpenLDAP/upgrading/1.0->1.1 ???

I have a database of about 2000 objects, the ldif2ldbm seems to have
slowed down in the order of magnitude of 10 (I had to leave it going
over night), and remove most of my index lines just to get it to go in.

It's good to see group (by default) in the new version, I will be
testing it out today!

Predrag Balorda has some nice OO PHP in the contrib directory, he hasn't
got an email address on the files though, any idea how he wants to be
contacted?

After all that, it seems to be working.

Any answers anyone?

Great work,
regards
alan
