It comments some braindead checks that I don't even remember what were there for, that prevent reloading a valid configuration from cn=config. Consider that back-config support in back-ldap was added during the development of back-config itself, so some odd configuration cases that worked at that time might no longer be valid now. > Should I use the configuration I gave above or should it be modified? The configuration should be fine; even the contents of the configuration database (back-config) should be valid. After applying the patch, slapd should restart fine, loading slapo-chain(5) as it is configured now. p.
