Re: ldif2ldbm in ver 2 series?

["Fabrice Nouet" <f_nouet@hotmail.com>]

I still have a problem with ldapadd

In fact I have to stop the database and after I use ldapadd -l .

But in fact I have to delete (with 'rm' command) database files.
If not the old database still exists ????

Is someone know this problem ?
