Views are a search based thing currently, so nothing happens to the entry when it is created, or afterwards - mods and adds work on the hierarchy itself and the entries end up where you actually put them. Views constructs its filter such that entries that actually exist in the view hiearchy are returned by searches along with the views based results. I had never thought of this before, but this is actually a nice way to contain apps like this that litter the dit. So, in theory, the client should be none the wiser. If you ever do come across an incompatibility like this, I would really like to hear about it. -- Fedora-directory-users mailing list Fedora-directory-users@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-directory-users
