And just in case somebody is thinking of implementing structural
integrity checking in FDS/RHDS:
Please do not implement this like OpenLDAP did:
- without any prior warning
- without any run-time toggle to disable it
It takes time to get "broken" applications fixed, especially if they are
broken third-party applications,
so you need to be able to disable structural integrity checking on the
server side.
