Re: v2.2.24 structural object class modification not allowed

[Curt Blank <curt@uwm.edu>]

Just want to say thanks to all on this. With everyone's help I was able 
to correct this problem and have a better understanding of things.

As a sidebar when I did this I removed structuralObjectClass, entryUUID, 
and entryCSN from the dump and let them be recreated when slapadd 
recreated the db. (After modifying the objectClass that couldn't be 
added before doing the slapadd.)
