schema checking cannot be disabled
I need to run openldap with schema checking off. This is because in the
real work, things are not always ideal. I have to be able to declare an
object to be of objectClass posixGroup *and* GroupOfUniqueNames. This
data is being imported from another directory service (Apple OS X
server) and as such I can't just alter these group definitions
arbitrarily.
I've been doing a lot of research and it appears that RedHat's directory
server is also implementing this, even though it is a schema violation.
Apparently RFC 2307bis has died, which would have corrected this
problem.
Can OpenLDAP 2.2.28 be hacked to turn schema checking back off? Or
better yet, how can I reconcile the posixGroup/groupOfUniqueNames
objectClasses? I'm not opposed to altering the schemas, but altering an
official schema (nis.schema or core.schema) could be problematic. How
are people dealing with this problem?
