Hi, Please see this thread for background info: http://www.openldap.org/lists/openldap-software/200901/msg00112.html

To me, something is either guaranteed or not. And I think "enforce" means something that is guaranteed. In this case, the uniqueness is not guaranteed, therefore it is not enforced.

Currently the man page of slapo-unique says "enforce uniqueness", which I

find

misleading. Would it be possible to change it to say "makes the best effort to enforce uniqueness" or something to that effect?

It would need more words than that to comment on what exactly happens i.e. why it is a "best effort".
