Hi there,
I'm reading through your admin guide & on page: http://www.openldap.org/doc/admin24/slapdconfig.html the last line of section 6.3.2 looks to me like it might have an error in it?
The text says: "Some factors may not be appropriate in all environments (or any). For example, the domain factor relies on IP to domain name lookups. As these can easily spoofed, the domain factor should _*not*_ be avoided."
The way it's phrased, I would have expected the final sentence to read: "As these can easily spoofed, the domain factor should be avoided."
(the 'not' appears to be at odds with the 'avoided')
(also, I think there's a 'be' missing between 'easily' and 'spoofed').
Thanks very much for your excellent software and very thorough and helpful documentation!
Thanks for the bug report, this is now fixed in CVS. Note that you reported version 2.3.27 on your bug report; it's not a good idea to use docs that don't match the version of software you're using. I suggest you upgrade to 2.3.39 at least and use the docs bundled in that release, or switch to 2.4.6.
