slapd-passwd

SLAPD-PASSWD(5) 						File Formats Manual						   SLAPD-PASSWD(5)

NAME

       slapd-passwd - /etc/passwd backend to slapd

SYNOPSIS

       /etc/openldap/slapd.conf

DESCRIPTION

       The  PASSWD  backend  to slapd(8) serves up the user account information listed in the system passwd(5) file.  This backend is provided for
       demonstration purposes only.  The DN of each entry is "uid=<username>,<suffix>".  Note that non-base searches scan the  the  entire  passwd
       file, and are best suited for hosts with small passwd files.

CONFIGURATION

       This slapd.conf option applies to the PASSWD backend database.  That is, it must follow a "database passwd" line and come before any subse-
       quent "backend" or "database" lines.  Other database options are described in the slapd.conf(5) manual page.

       file <filename>
	      Specifies an alternate passwd file to use.  The default is /etc/passwd.

ACCESS CONTROL

       The passwd backend does not honor any of the access control semantics described in slapd.access(5).  Only read (=r)  access  to	the  entry
       pseudo-attribute  and  to  the other attribute values of the entries returned by the search operation is honored, which is performed by the
       frontend.

FILES

       /etc/openldap/slapd.conf
	      default slapd configuration file

       /etc/passwd
	      user account information

SEE ALSO

       slapd.conf(5), slapd(8), passwd(5).
