The documentation in the slapd-config manpage is incorrect. The olcExtraAttrs setting is said to be a global configuration setting when in reality it seems to be database specific. In the slapd.conf manpage, the corresponding setting (extra_attrs) is listed as being database-specific. I believe that is correct although I have not checked it.
