Hi,

We are currently redesigning our OpenLDAP server setup. Until now we used one 
primary server with four replicas, which gets synced with syncrepl. Each server 
is using a slapd.conf (Which is deployed via a central config management). 
Using this setup, we can define one ACL entry set for our primary server and 
another set for our replicas. Also, this makes viewing and understanding these 
ACLs quite easy.

As part of our redesign, I've looked up the documentation, which states:
"slapd.conf(5) has been deprecated and should only be used if your site 
requires one of the backends that hasn't yet been updated to work with the 
newer slapd-config(5) system."

Now my question is, is the slapd.conf going to be removed in future OpenLDAP 
versions, or will it remain in OpenLDAP?
Should we move our configuration to the new slapd-config system?

Kind regards,

Christopher Schenk
