using OpenLDAP client to change directory schema

[Klaus Heinrich Kiwi <klausk@linux.vnet.ibm.com>]

Hi,

 My understanding is that OpenLDAP software doesn't support subschema
modification over LDAP operations, but I'm willing to use OpenLDAP
client to change cn=schema on an LDAP server (different vendor) that
supports it.

Is that possible? Or is the OpenLDAP checking for cn=schema at the
client? The output I'm getting is:

[root@pam ~]# ldapmodify -H ldap://host -D cn=root -w passwd -x -ZZ -a -f /usr/share/doc/krb5-server-ldap-1.6.2/kerberos.ldif
ldapmodify: invalid format (line 5) entry: "cn=schema"
[root@pam ~]# 


Thanks,

 -Klaus
