Re: v2.2.24 structural object class modification not allowed

[Curt Blank <curt@uwm.edu>]

Is everyone failing to remember that in OpenLDAP 2.0.27 this was *NOT* 
enforced? But that was ok? Now it's not? I fail to understand the double 
standard. Or did the X.500 spec change and that is now why OpenLDAP 
2.2.24 enforces it?
