Hi everyone,

I am looking to convert a file based bind setup to dlz and I am 
stumbling on an issue. The setup is using multi-view (which are 
supported in dlz).

Since 95% of the zones are identical, in the file based setup, we use 
the "include" statement to import the common entries in the different views.

In order to reproduce this behavior, I have tried to use openldap 
aliases (alias schema). It works fine when testing with ldapsearch and 
alias dereferencing (flag -a always). The dns query through dlz for non 
aliased entries is working fine too.

However the setup does not resolve aliased entries, and I guess the 
issue is that the dlz does not dereference alias by default, and I have 
not found a way to activate dereferencing. The source code does not 
permit to setup ldap url extensions like derefAliases , so I am 
wondering if this is could be done?

Cheers,

Denis
