Some attribute types used in the cosine schema don't match the case were
they are used.

For example the aRecord attribute type is created with the name
"aRecord" but used by the dNSDomain object class as "ARecord".
Consequently adding dNSDomain entries to the database does not work.

Maybe I'm missing something obvious, but I've never had LDAP attributes
be case-sensitive.  I do searches and modifies using different case from
the definition of the attribute all the time, unless I'm completely
spacing because it's too late.

pbone@spelter:~$ ldapvi -o dNSDomain
Error: Attribute type not found: ARecord

It might be ldapvi that is searching for the ARecord attribute in a
case-insensative way after looking at the dNSDomain object class.  I'll try
using ldapadd and see if I get the same results.

Thanks.
