Dear all,

Is there a way to define a string to be empty in OpenLDAP Schema? I read that
RFC 2252 doesnt allow empty strings. But is there any workaround for this like
a different SYNTAX or attribute type? We have a preexisting software which
tries to write empty strings and it is crashing because of this.

google site:www.openldap.org zero-length strings

This has been hashed out numerous times. Your software is broken.
