You have used the deprecated -h option. Would it really be beneficial to fix this?
Best wishes, Andrew

Hi,
Just a user and not really in a position to tell you what to work on. Still, I think looking at the pending ITS/bug might be be nice.
Shameless plug of my (easily reproducible) bug report: http://www.openldap.org/its/index.cgi/Software%20Bugs?id=8618
Best,
Alex

Hi,
Me and one of my colleagues are interested in contributing to OpenLDAP. Do you have any interesting projects that new comers such as myself could work on?
With best regards, Dr Andrew Lawrence

While the API is deprecated, there's also no timetable on if/when that usage will be removed, so it's probably worth fixing at some point. ;)

I have had a look at the code. There seems to be very little/no validation on the host names.
I am going to write a patch for this and see if I can fix it.
