Hello,
I have a couple of questions about the most awesome OpenLDAP init script
found at
http://ltb-project.org/wiki/download
and
http://ltb-project.org/wiki/documentation/openldap-initscript
( "ltb-project-openldap-initscript-1.9")
1. Is it pretty standard practice to do a db_recover on OpenLDAP startup?
2. The value of $dbsufs in its initial call by the backup() function
below is being initialized as "", then is being evaluated later on, and
failing every time . My $DATA_PATH is not "auto" so $dbsufs is not being
populated.
I added these 2 lines and it works fine:
get_confvalues "suffix"
dbsufs=$RETVAL
Either that or hard-code something like:
dbsufs="dc=mycompany,dc=com"
Or I could set my DATA_PATH to "auto". :)
I guess I just wanted to bring this to the attention of script authors : in
the case where DATA_PATH is not set to auto, the dbsufs variable is not
being populated in backup().
Thank you in advance for suggestions and responses.
