Description

Toushirou and Elwing were switched. I had a few problems with the old DC/HF databases on Elwing, and had to rebuild them (HF db was rebuilt with a not extremely recent backup, as the backup was empty; probably linked with the BDB version mismatch encountered during the migration).

We need to find a solution to properly update the schema when needed (slaptest could convert it to LDIF, perhaps using a fake minimalist config file, so we'll just have to replace the corresponding 'slapd.d/cn=config/...' file between a stop/start of the server). The DB rebuild script must be checked/updated too.

slapd is on hold on Orfeo in the meanwhile.

I cannot hold slapd anymore (sync with the rest of the distro, moving fast after Squeeze release, and security issues), so i'm upgrading Orfeo too.

The DB rebuild script is ok.

We can update cn=config using phpldapadmin on each server.

The schema is now replicated from Orfeo and can be managed using phpldapadmin, even if not very handy.

The LdapShadows project is not ready yet, but mostly working.

phpldapadmin was removed because it's unmaintained and full of bugs. LdapShadows is going nowhere I fear. The content is already generated, so could the configuration I think. That's what I suggested in #619. Anyway, there has not been package hold for some time and the is going to be decided in the other ticket, so closing this one.
