[Fedora-directory-users] RE: Migrating from 1.0.2 to 1.1, not all databases migrated

[Jeff Tharp]

Argh, I figured out this problem was self-inflicted.  I used too old a
revision of the dse.ldif file as the basis for my migration.  Updating
to a newer revision (that included references to the missing backend)
solved the problem.

Thanks for the help and sorry to have wasted time with this.
