Adding blanks in entries

[Kenny Stoltz <kstoltz@internetpresenter.com>]

I believe I have ldap working as well as I can figure out, but now I am
trying to use it and nearly every application (phpgroupware, several
other php-based applications) I've tried attempts to add entries with
every field not set as blank, so the ldif file would look this:

dn: uid=sampleuser1233,ou=People,dc=internetpresenter,dc=com
givenname: Sam
middlename:
sn: Pull
mail: sampull@internetpresenter.com
title:
telephonenumber:
homephone:
facsimiletelephonenumber:
pagertelephonenumber:
cellphone:

And slapd gets angry at all the blank fields. This would make sense if
every single application didn't attempt to do it, I believe that there
must be something wrong with my slapd configuration. Other than that,
I'm off to rewrite everything I've tried :-).
