Storing OpenLDAP configuration in LDAP...



One of the long term issues with Debian Edu has been the need to
modify the configuration files of openldap/slapd, to get our
configuration.  In a discussion on debian-devel@, I came across a
reference to a new feature in OpenLDAP 2.4, the cn=config feature.

If I am not mistaken, it allow us to store the configuration in the
LDAP database, thus avoiding having to edit the slapd.conf file
directly.

Anyone know how this work?  I found
<URL:http://www.zytrax.com/books/ldap/ch6/slapd-config.html> with some
information about it, but have not had time to look into it yet.

Happy hacking,
