It is not configurable, AFAIR. It's by design, as the proxy struggles to return as much information as possible while hiding problems at the remote host side. However I understand in some cases it might be preferable to behave differently; something along the lines of the "onerr" directive for slapd-meta(5). I suggest you file an ITS <http://www.openldap.org/its>. p. -- Pierangelo Masarati Associate Professor Dipartimento di Ingegneria Aerospaziale Politecnico di Milano
