Hi all. I am looking to run the slapd process in the foreground on a Unix system, so I can be notified immediately if it dies... Looking at the usage of the "start-slapd" command: usage: ns-slapd -D instancedir [-d debuglevel] [-i pidlogfile] [-v] [-V] There's no real guidance as to how the -d option works (i.e. what levels it supports), but experimentally, we've determined that -d 0 will run the process and not fork/exit into the background. Is this behavior known, and should we count on it? Is there a better way to get the slapd to stay in the foreground? Finally, what debug levels are available, and what do they mean? Thanks! -- Mike Mueller mike at subfocal.net
