Can I set up an openldap server using a modern openldap version to mimic the old LDAP v2 behaviour? Especially regarding userCertificate and the old way of using the {ASN}xxxxxxhexcodexxxxx syntax? If using ldapsearch from openldap 2.0.23 and specifying -P2 I do get the old syntax as result, e.g.: ldapsearch -P2 -x -b "c=uk" -h sphinx500.bsi.bund.de -L Of course using the default with out -P2 it is returned as usercertificate;binary thus it seems to be upward compatible. However I've found not way to insert data in my openldap server to give the same result. I cannot enter it with usercertificate: {ASN}xxxx and if I use certificate;binary I do not get the old syntax returned. Any ideas? I've been reading http://www.openldap.org/lists/ietf-ldapbis/200203/msg00105.html which explained some things to be. It still leaves me a bit confused. If you have good pointers to read I'd appreciate it, too. ADVthanksANCE, Bernhard
