\fIdebug\-level\fP is taken as a bit string, with each bit corresponding to a
different kind of debugging information. See <ldap.h> for details.

+All the names recognized by the \fIloglevel\fP directive

will be output, so if you redirect the log to a logfile, that file should
be read-protected.

("r", which applies to search and compare), write operations ("w",
