--- Comment #3 from Kristian Hoffmann khoffmann@united-internet.de --- Removing the -s option is totally fine for me. I just wanted to make sure this issue is addressed in any form. If the option doesn't work for (default) mdb backends and code for back-hdb has been removed already in 2.5+, it might be a good time for final removal of this option, too.
Thank you for your enduring work on openLDAP over all the years and for providing a piece of fast and rock-solid software.
