RE: Exporting OpenLdap Question



I've never seen this occur but I'd imagine it can happen if your dn2id index
had been corrupted at some point and someone managed to add the same entry
twice. Whatever the cause, certainly the database has been corrupted.

I am not sure if this is the most appropriate forum to be posting this in,
but under what conditions will a "slapcat" command on an existing
LDAP Server create an LDIF file that contains multiple duplicate entry
DN's with different entry data.

For instance, if I have a dn titled, "cn=systemconfig,ou=System,o=company",
it would appear more than once in the file. Under what possible scenerio's
would this happen?

Thanks
Paul
