This is an experimental database driver to provide LDAP support for debconf. It is not, generally speaking, production level, and I would not suggest using it for your mission critical cluster config just yet. That being said, I would welcome any hardy souls who wish to help with testing this module - the more eyes, the quicker the bugs get found and stomped. At present, it is not recommended that you use this module to store templates. Multilingual templates will most certainly not work, and I haven't tested default templates either. You Have Been Warned. To get this to work, you need to do the following: 1) Get /usr/share/doc/debconf-doc/debconf.schema into your DS. 2) Configure debconf to use the LDAP database in some fashion. The debconf.conf(5) man page has documentation and examples. 3) Make sure that any templates which don't have associated config items anymore are removed from the templates DB. This is important - if debconf can find the template but not the config item, it has a fit. Easiest solution is to use a new templates DB file. 4) Configure your packages as you see fit. -- Matthew Palmer
