Re: client-pr option for meta backend

Hello,



I have set up a meta backend with OpenLDAP 2.4.42 on an Ubuntu Server
16.04.



This is working with some ldapsearch but meta directory will be used by a
VMware vCenter. The vCenter LDAP client uses the pagedResultsControl,
which is disabled by default for the meta backend (according to the
slapd-meta documentation).

Hi Luarent,

The client-pr code is currently ifdef'd behind LDAP_DEVEL, which means it is not enabled by default. It appears there is a bug here, in that either the feature should be moved out from being behind LDAP_DEVEL or the documentation should be removed from the man page. If you need use of this feature, you need to define SLAPD_META_CLIENT_PR when compiling OpenLDAP.

From back-meta.h:

#ifdef LDAP_DEVEL
#define SLAPD_META_CLIENT_PR 1
#endif /* LDAP_DEVEL */
