[KLUG Members] book suggestions for openldap

   alone to tell thee:

May I note that without some recipes, almost all Linux programs would go
unused.

I'm working with the padl.com migration scripts and have hit a rather
large snag: krbName is not defined in /etc/ldap/schema/krb5-kdc.schema,
but the padl.com scripts expect it to be there. Adam: what do I use
instead of krbName: krb5PrincipalName or krb5Principal? I think it's the
first.

And may I say what a massive thrill it is to use the online migration
script only to have it fail on the slightest error? The offline attempt
ended in failure when my slapd database dared to have
"dn: dc=killdevil,dc=org" defined.
