I'm using an old version wich works perfectly with standard schema
(e.g. all those loaded by default in the example slapd.conf that comes
with the distribution).  I don't know what attribute types mozilla 1.6
usues, but it must be definitely braindead, because clients are supposed
to verify if the attribute types they're going to ask for, or use in the
filter, are defined at the DSA's side by searching the subschemaSubentry.
