Hi,
Yesterday I did update a SLES test server from 2.4.17 to 2.4.18. I use the old plain configuration by file.
On startup I got "subordinate needs a suffix" errors. The database definitions contain suffix and subordinate as well (for ages ...), but "subordinate" is the second statement after "database", "suffix" is third. I changed subordinate to the last statement of each database definition and it works again.
I found "Fixed slapd subordinate needs a suffix (ITS#6216)" in "CHANGES". The ITS mails does not talk about this issue. (It's all about config by ldif.) So this change may not been intended. Or did I overlook something?
Marc

This is in fact the ususal configuration, as the parameter 'subordiante' calls the chain overlay, which has to be last in the overlay configuration chain. The manual page slapd.conf(5) describes this in detail.

This is my bad, it should read glue overlay.
