Bug fixes This section describes bugs fixed in Directory Server 11.2 that have a significant impact on users. Bug fixes in the 389-ds-base packages Bug fixes in Red Hat Directory Server, that are included in the 389-ds-base packages, are documented in the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.3 Release Notes: Directory Server no longer leaks memory when using indirect COS definitions 9.3. Known issues This section documents known problems and, if applicable, workarounds in Directory Server 11.2. Directory Server settings that are changed outside the web console's window are not automatically visible Because of the design of the Directory Server module in the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 web console, the web console does not automatically display the latest settings if a user changes the configuration outside of the console's window. For example, if you change the configuration using the command line while the web console is open, the new settings are not automatically updated in the web console. This applies also if you change the configuration using the web console on a different computer. To work around the problem, manually refresh the web console in the browser if the configuration has been changed outside the console's window. The Directory Server Web Console does not provide an LDAP browser The web console enables administrators to manage and configure Directory Server 11 instances. However, it does not provide an integrated LDAP browser. To manage users and groups in Directory Server, use the dsidm utility. To display and modify directory entries, use a third-party LDAP browser or the OpenLDAP client utilities provided by the openldap-clients package.
