Hi!
OpenLDAP's dynamic configuration mechanism was released in 2005. It does not change every other release. It's not our fault if your distro is so behind the times.
Interesting. My machine is admittedly a little out of date but given how much fun it is to upgrade these various services, you have all grant me just a tiny amount of slack. The old machine is running openldap 2.3.30 circa 2007.
Also, if the new config format has been out that long, I'm kinda surprised that the config conversion has been so hard.
Anyway, thanks for helping me. I think I'm going to get this new machine in place and then tackle the conversion. It needs to be done as I'd like to upgrade more often in the future.
