No, I didn't - there was no warning message in the config file or the 
syslog warning that this was necessary.

Is it possible to document this in the default slapd.conf file under the 
section where indexes are listed to say that this is required?

Or even better, is it possible for openldap to detect when the indexes 
have been changed, and make sure they are up to date on startup or on 
reload?
