I think I can explain some of your problems. Most of the SIPB Athena
port to linux has various site defaults set for MIT (probably not
unreasonable given who the majority of the users are). I suspect this
is your problem with olc. I know for a fact that moira has a header
file which names the default moira server. Since the distribution we
distribute contains binaries, you get our compiled in default. Moira
does use hesiod when available, so getting an sloc entry for moira
might solve the problem (probably modulo the HES_DOMAIN env var, but
I'm not positive).
As for the unknown query problem, I believe this means that the moira
server being used at iastate is an older one, that doesn't handle the
specific query you tried to use. As an aside, I believe that query
was added to moira in order to accomodate an additional field for user
records. I'm not sure there is a good solution to this problem.
