I really don't understand how you and others get this to work, whatever
I do (I've tried to do exact the same, only with other values), I only
get LDAPv2 referrals with just the host part, like

conn=4 op=5 SEARCH RESULT tag=101 err=9 text=Referral:
ldap://directory.aots.sanita.fvg.it

How do I configure which versions of OpenLDAP to get proper referrals
including the dn? It seems like many are doing this, but I can't.
I've been trying with 1.2 and devel, and searching with ldapsearch.
I could go into more details, but it looks like I'm missing something
elementary.
