Re: adding VLV support to OpenLDAP 2.4.31
Thank you Andrew and Quanah. I appreciate your help.
I manually added "olcModuleLoad: {1}sssvlv.la" to the
/etc/ldap/slapd.d/cn=config/cn=module{0}.ldif file. For now, it did
not do anything. I will re-read the manuals and resume.
It is almost 1 AM in my timezone. To be continued tomorrow.
