Secondly, the argument to -P is the filename prefix of either your key or cert db file e.g. if you have slapd-instance-cert8.db and slapd-instance-key3.db your -P argument will be "slapd-instance-" <- note the trailing "-" after "slapd-instance" - this is critical - it is part of the filename prefix and must not be omitted. > > Confidentiality Notice: > The information contained in this electronic message is intended for > the exclusive use of the individual or entity named above and may > contain privileged or confidential information.
