209 Having slapd configuration files and ldap databases in /var/lib/openldap
210 readable by anyone is a SECURITY ISSUE, especially since a file stores
211 admin password in PLAIN TEXT. That's why mode 640 and root:ldap ownership
212 were used. Owner is root, so only root can modify the file, and group is
213 ldap, so that the group which owns slapd daemon could read but not modify
214 the file in case of a security breach.

759 is a set of Lightweight Basic Encoding Rules routines. These

763 by an LDAP application program except in the handling of controls
764 and extended operations.
