	I store my schema, attributes, and ACLs in my LDAP server.  It's a
horrible hack, but it works like this:

objectclass spyConfig
        requires
                cn,
                config
        allows
                description

My local.oc.conf, for instance, is as follows:

	cn=Object Classes,ou=LDAP,ou=Configs,ou=Data,dc=spy,dc=net

Then, when I make changes, I stick them into the LDAP server, and go to
each server and restart it after running a shell script that extracts the
new configs.  Here are my scripts (again, yeah, this is a hack, and it'd
be nice if the stuff were live in the LDAP server, but this has really
helped me):



#!/bin/sh
# $Id: getallconfigs,v 1.1 2000/02/27 10:44:41 dustin Exp $
# This is the script that gets all the configs and writes them out

echo "Getting Attributes"
./getconfig "cn=Attributes,ou=LDAP" local.at.conf
echo "Getting Object Classes"
./getconfig "cn=Object Classes,ou=LDAP" local.oc.conf
echo "Getting ACLs"
./getconfig "cn=ACLs,ou=LDAP" slapd.acl.conf



#!/bin/sh
# $Id: getconfig,v 1.2 2000/02/27 10:46:57 dustin Exp $
# Extract a given config

if [ $# -lt 2 ]
then
        echo "Usage:"
        echo "$0 ConfigDN File"
        echo ""
        echo "Example:"
        echo "$0 cn=Attributes,ou=LDAP local.at.conf"
        exit
fi

umask 77

dn=$1
file=$2

# what this basically does is grab the config file from the LDAP server,
# and figure out what the name of it is.
huh=`ldapsearch -s base -W -D uid=$LOGNAME,ou=agents,dc=spy,dc=net \
        -B -t -b "$dn,ou=configs,ou=data,dc=spy,dc=net" objectclass=\* config \
        | egrep config \
        | sed s/config=//`

if [ -f $file ]
then
        mv $file $file.old
fi

mv $huh $file
