Name        : slapi-nis

Version     : 0.42
Release     : 1.fc17

Summary     : NIS Server and Schema Compatibility plugins for Directory Server
Description :
This package provides two plugins for Red Hat and 389 Directory Server.

The NIS Server plugin allows the directory server to act as a NIS server
for clients, dynamically generating and updating NIS maps according to
its configuration and the contents of the DIT, and serving the results to
clients using the NIS protocol as if it were an ordinary NIS server.

The Schema Compatibility plugin allows the directory server to provide an
alternate view of entries stored in part of the DIT, optionally adding,
dropping, or renaming attribute values, and optionally retrieving values
for attributes from multiple entries in the tree.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

This update fixes a slow memory leak and removes built-in attempts to accommodate transaction support in the directory server, which now interferes with the way the directory server implements them.

ChangeLog:

* Wed Jun 13 2012 Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin at redhat.com> - 0.42-1
- drop support for directory server transactions (richm, #766320)
* Tue May 22 2012 Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin at redhat.com>
- fix a leak due to us assuming that slapi_mods_add_smod() not taking ownership
  of an smod along with its contents, when it just keeps the contents
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
