Oh, and that special syntax is a function of ldapadd/ldapmodify, not some standard way of importing images - so using it with slapadd won't work.
Not true. Both slapadd and ldapadd use the same LDIF reading routines; they have since 2.3 was first released. All valid LDIF is accepted identically by both programs.
well, that's a SHOULD in RFC2849, so it is indeed a standard way of importing values (works with any value) using LDIF. The fact it doesn't work with slapadd should be seen as a limitation of that tool, which it is not intended for use with arbitrary LDIF but rather with LDIF produced by slapcat.
Well, I need to take both my claims back; I was writing
jpegPhoto: <file///...
while the right syntax (still with the missing ":") is
jpegPhoto:< file///...
and the error is still there in 2.3. I'll fix it in a moment.
