Hi, actually it has been a while since I did it last time... it could be that my memory starts to faulting. But this behaviour could also be due to the oldness of your memberOf overlay. I cannot afford again the slapcat/drop/slapadd these days, sorry.

Hi,
I tried the method suggested by Marco to populate memberOf attributes of existing entries:
How would you recommend getting memberof values populated in the
existing directory?
If you can afford a sequence of: stop -> slapcat -> drop db -> slapadd Everything gets populated as desired.
I tried this and the directory was restored minus the memberOf attributes. I used the following commands on version 2.4.11 (yes, I know I have to upgrade …) :
/usr/local/sbin/slapcat -l data_20111201.ldif (..drop db..) /usr/local/sbin/slapadd -c -v –l data_20111201.ldif
‘Manual’ group membership updates do result in the memberOf attributes getting updated, so I know the overlay is working.
Thanks, *Bryce Powell
