If I understand right so I need to send it to openldap-software@openldap.org , right?

Yes.

by the way I never used overlay before.

Ok.

The company I work for use ldap pretty much and log file get big very fast and same times they are only interested on just "errors". Last time it was just a few lines on the file they needed and the log file contained over 100K lines.

This is the information I was after. If they only want to log errors, change the "loglevel" setting. See "man slapd.conf". This is what man pages are for ;-)

What loglevel is it currently on.

Thanks for the information

Kind Regards, Kambiz Behrooz

I am new on openldap (and ldap and this maillist). My company wants to have more control on the logging and I have to make changes on openldap and probably make changes so the can be on next version openldap.

Does openldap use only syslog for all logging ? where is easiest to begin ? How good need the code be to have chance to be add to openldap ?

Thanks for any information

This is really for the openldap-software list. Please resend.

Anyway....

Have you looked at the accesslog overlay? You haven't mentioned why/what logging is inadequate?
