Hi!

While trying to slapadd a dumped config database in "-u" mode, I see this:
5e43b796 PROXIED attributeDescription "DC" inserted.

What does it mean? There is no "DC" in the LDIF file being imported.

It has to do with attributes existing in cn=config (such as modifiersName or creatorsName usually) where the DN that modified the entry has a "dc" component. You can safely ignore it. This is one of the reasons I'm not fond of the default way in which Debian/Ubuntu/RH (mis)configured their default access setup for cn=config.
