Bug Description

After much complaining (bug #442498) the slapd package in Natty now sets up a default DIT out of the box. However, the change is a little braindead as it sets up the suffix based on the localdomain of the localhost. I realize the change came in from Debian but I'm sure we can do better than this. Please allow the user to decide (debconf/preseed) what suffix to use for their database!

Hello Peter,

I don't have a natty chroot any more, but as far back as precise, preseeding slapd/domain does set the suffix of the default DIT, and there is a debconf prompt for it too, at medium priority.

Marking the bug fixed, but please correct me if you meant something different.
