Closed: wontfix by tbordaz. Opened by tbordaz.

Ticket was cloned from Red Hat Bugzilla (product Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7): Bug 1662461

389-ds-base-1.3.8.4-18.el7_6.x86_64
#
How reproducible:
Always.
Steps to Reproduce:
# ldapsearch -xLLL -D "cn=Directory Manager" -W -b "dc=TekoSoft,dc=com" -sbase
objectclass=* ""
Enter LDAP Password:
dn: dc=TekoSoft,dc=com
# ldapsearch -xLLL -D "cn=Directory Manager" -W -b "dc=TekoSoft,dc=com" -sbase
objectclass=* "" "" ""
Enter LDAP Password:
