Maybe _I_ am confused! :-) Please have a look at the filelists here: Etch, i386: http://packages.debian.org/etch/i386/heimdal-kdc/filelist Sure enough, /etc/ldap/schema/hdb.schema is the third entry. Sid, i386: http://packages.debian.org/sid/i386/heimdal-kdc/filelist And, I don't see it! :-) So, could you confirm that this is correct, or is there something missing? One explanation I can provide is that the file you refer to is in the unstable version of heimdal-kdc in hurd-i386, which is woefully outdated. So, I'd trust the filelists I gave you more than the searched one; isn't this right? Thanks! Kumar -- Kumar Appaiah, 458, Jamuna Hostel, Indian Institute of Technology Madras, Chennai - 600 036
