No, it does not. It looks like you need a value. So, I installed a 64 bit version from scratch, took that generated value in the migrated dse.ldif and started the server. This works, however it is kind of ugly. Now, this brings up another question: If I do something like that (with perl?), do I screw up my replication agreements? -Reinhard -----Original Message----- From: fedora-directory-users-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:fedora-directory-users-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Rich Megginson Sent: Friday, April 04, 2008 10:19 AM To: General discussion list for the Fedora Directory server project.

Unfortunately, that attribute contains raw binary data that may not be 64-bit clean. If you shutdown the server, delete that attribute, and start the server, does it work? > -Reinhard > > -----Original Message----- > From: fedora-directory-users-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx > [mailto:fedora-directory-users-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Rich > Megginson > Sent: Thursday, April 03, 2008 1:30 PM > To: General discussion list for the Fedora Directory server project. > Subject: Re: Is it possible to migrateBerkeley > 4.2(32bit) based directory to 4.2 (64bit) > > Reinhard Nappert wrote: > >> Thanks Rick, >> >> You are saying, I have to export it at first. >> >> Initially, I just built 1.1 in 32bit mode (with the identical db >> library).
