Hi. I will use the correct mailing list.
The place that I found the *wrong* information for logfile directive (according to Google) was this doc
Here, it states,
OpenLDAP logs via syslogd (using LOCAL4) in all cases (see loglevel for configuration information on streaming syslogd LDAP messages to a separate file). In addition the logfile directive may be used to create a separate file containing just LDAP log information.
Based on this information, I have *perceived* the behavior of slapd as a BUG.. my apologies.
Your opinion is valuable, just like that of anyone. The code is perfectible. However, to discuss opinions and improvements of code, a technical discussion forum is more appropriate that a bug tracking system. I believe that slapd already has provisions to address your needs, and pointed you to what I think are the appropriate sources of information. Changing the way software works (and has been working for decades) requires a real need and consensus. Fixing bugs is a completely different business.
