Re: custom schema oddness?

[Aaron Richton <richton@nbcs.rutgers.edu>]

If you just add the schema, they should only show up in cn=Subschema. You 
have to actually add/modify the data in the directory, placing values in 
the new attributes in some entries, before the attributes will start to 
appear in OpenLDAP's slapcat/ldapsearch. (I can't speak to phpLdapAdmin.)

If you're wondering if they're getting loaded, I believe slapd -d config 
shows schema file parsing.
