Nope; still not purging, even with a 5-minute scan.
Well, it works perfectly for me...
My syntax is a bit different than yours though:
In your example configuration, you didn't show the overlay bit being
inside another database definition, but I assume it is...
Yes, it is, and it took a while to work that one out; talk about
economical documentation :-)
The overlay keyword is documented in slapd.conf(5) under the General
Database Options. The first sentence of this section states:
Options in this section only apply to the configuration file
section for the database in which they are defined.
The documentation for the overlay keyword begins:
Add the specified overlay to this database.
I would think it's clear from these statements that overlay
configurations are only valid on specific databases.
Why use a thousand words to say the same thing over and over again? Why
write any documentation at all when the existing documents are so
obviously being ignored?
