Submission from: (NULL) (202.21.137.14) =20 =20 Hello, =20 This patch adds support for passing through unbind requests to the underlying module when using the perl backend.

=20 In this patch, the unbind operation is bypassed if requested by the rootdn. You seem to consider "unbind" as the opposite of "bind", =

while it

is a request to shutdown a connection between client and server. As =

such,

it should be honored also when the connection is bound as the rootdn.

More to the point, backends should not be dependent on close (nor open) = connection events. Hence this patch ought to be rejected.
