Ok, but wouldn't that detail be best served staying in the man page? I mean, what "user" will want to enter hex for loglevels?

I'll make the same anyway.

Thanks.

Awww, aren't we nice! ;-)

Patch applied,

The new patch is definitely an improvement, however it fails to document the hexadecimal notation for log levels, which is also perfectly valid. See slapd.conf(5):

     1	    (0x1 trace) trace function calls
     2	    (0x2 packets) debug packet handling
     4	    (0x4 args) heavy trace debugging (function args)

and the description therein:

     The desired log level can be input  as  a  single  integer  that
     combines	the  (ORed)  desired  levels,  both  in  decimal or in
     hexadecimal notation, as a  list	of  integers  (that  are  ORed
     internally),  or	as  a list of the names that are shown between
     brackets, such that

  loglevel 129
  loglevel 0x81
  loglevel 128 1
  loglevel 0x80 0x1
  loglevel acl trace

     are equivalent.
