Thanks for the response.  Another related question.  Does freeipa
1.2.2 use the "cn=config" way, or the schema file in
/etc/openldap/schema?

Again, I'm just starting out, but I found configuration information in
both places.  I'm just wondering if I were to extend the schema for
use with samba, do I want to go the cn=config route, or the
/etc/openldap/schema file route.

Thanks again,
Mike
