May I see a show of hands as to who has reviewed the entirety of the www.openldap.org website, including all of the mailing list threads, presentations, topics linked to, and FAQs? Didn't raise your hand? Please unsubscribe from the list immediately and stop pestering Howard with your uninformed and ignorant postings.
Standard netiquette is that you search for topics before posting. The standard welcome message for these lists already tell you to search the archives before asking a question that has already been asked and answered.
There's no point in people writing email replies to you if you're incapable of reading. If you're unwilling to read information that people provide you in links, you're just wasting everyone's time.
But there's also no point in writing replies like "it's documented" (as if the writer has found it) without giving the proof (i.e.: URI). Finding such a response in a mailing list archive is just as useless IMHO. (You may supress the flame that usually follows such replies).
