Re: SLAPD trouble on 64 bit IRIX 6.5 (ITS#624)

[kunkee@neosoft.com]

Reminds me of an old problem we had with the 64bit Alpha / OSF4.0e.
It turned out to be a host byte order problem.  Don't know if that
will help you or not -- but getting the right version should be
straight forward.  That you are not suggests that there is a ber
encoding/decoding problem.  If I recall correctly, there are some
tests programs you can build and then test with.
