Re: x-ordered extension doesn't work (openldap2-2.3.27)
I suggest you start with something simpler, like example data. Working
with configuration data may really put you into trouble, as there might
be subtle side-effects that lead to apparently counter-intuitive behavior.
For example, you should start from understanding how test042 works:
cd tests/
./run test042
look at testrun/slapd.1.conf for the configuration, and at
scripts/test042-valsort for what the test actually does. Then you can
start slapd with that configuration and try some simple operations:
ldapsearch, ldapadd, ldapmodify and so.

You're not supposed to run slapadd while the server is running.

Unless you load the valsort overlay where appropriate, you won't have
the desired feature.

They are, no need to infer. You are not supposed to muck with internal
schema, most of all with that configuration specific.
