Glad to know that.

Thank you, William!
Are you running RHDS8? It is quite old... I'd recommend the latest
version which is RHDS 10.
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Directory_Server/10...
Because it's under the retro_changelog_plugin section, and the
discussions of retro changelog is described as:
"T he Retro Changelog plug-in configures Directory Server to maintain a
changelog that is compatible with
the changelog implemented in Directory Server 4.0, 4.1, and 4.1x.
Maintaining a retro changelog is
essential to maintain a changelog for directory clients that depend on
a Directory Server 4.x-style
changelog."
In the administration guide.
Retro changelog is a separate plug-in. Despite of the
name "retro", it
is still useful to store the change logs in the database independent
from new/old replications.
