Re: (ITS#4684) Bind Operation Bug

[hyc@symas.com]

Since it is known that DNs with spaces in them work perfectly well in 
the OpenLDAP server, there is no indication of any bug in OpenLDAP 
software here. Either Sun's JNDI is broken or your test program, neither 
of which is our concern. This ITS will be closed.
