So my entry above should become:

dn: dc=subtree,dc=deepeddy,dc=com
objectClass: referral
objectClass: extensibleObject
dc: subtree
ref: ldap://10.1.2.1/o=vircio,c=US

I looked at that, but was confused since the example demonstrates a subtree of 
the same name on another server rather than a redirection into a different 
tree.

I want to make sure I really understand what I'm doing before I proceed 
because I have to temporarily break my incoming mail to try anything.

where do I find this?

tar -ztvf openldap-stable-20010524.tgz |grep -i draft-zeilenga-ldapext-namedref

returns nothing.
