Re: Strange slapadd behavior

We were hoping to carry over all the operational attributes associated with objects in the LDAP. If I remember correctly, ldapadd will not apply operational attributes.

I would suggest you start with ldapadd to import, rather than slapadd, as
you likely need the additional validation steps initially when doing the
migration from 2.3 to 2.4.

I'd also avoid using RH's native packages and use a current release.  The
LTB project and Symas both provide free alternatives to RH's builds.
