.SH NAME

|
|
|
|
slapd.overlays \- overlays for slapd, the stand-alone LDAP daemon
|
|
|
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
The
|
|
|
|
|
.BR slapd (8)
|
|
|
|
|
daemon can use a variety of different overlays to alter or extend
|
|
|
|
|
the normal behavior of a database backend.
|
|
|
|
|
Overlays may be compiled statically into slapd, or when module support
|
|
|
|
|
is enabled, they may be dynamically loaded. Most of the overlays
|
|
|
|
|
are only allowed to be configured on individual databases, but some
|
|
|
|
|
may also be configured globally.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Configuration options for each overlay are documented separately in the
|
|
|
|
|
corresponding
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
.B accesslog
|
|
|
|
|
Access Logging.
|
|
|
|
|
This overlay can record accesses to a given backend database on another
|
|
|
|
|
database.
|
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
|
|
|
.B auditlog
|
|
|
|
|
Audit Logging.
|
|
|
|
|
This overlay records changes on a given backend database to an LDIF log
|
|
|
|
|
file.
|
|
|
|
|
By default it is not built.
|
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
|
|
|
.B chain
|
|
|
|
|
Chaining.
|
|
|
|
|
This overlay allows automatic referral chasing when a referral would
|
|
|
|
|
have been returned, either when configured by the server or when
|
|
|
|
|
requested by the client.

|
|
|
.B constraint
|
|
|
|
|
Constraint.
|
|
|
|
|
This overlay enforces a regular expression constraint on all values
|
2007-02-24 02:24:26 +08:00
|
|
|
of specified attributes. It is used to enforce a more rigorous
|
2007-02-24 02:23:44 +08:00
|
|
|
syntax when the underlying attribute syntax is too general.
|
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
|
|
|
.B dds
|
|
|
|
|
Dynamic Directory Services.
|
|
|
|
|
This overlay supports dynamic objects, which have a limited life after
|
|
|
|
|
which they expire and are automatically deleted.
|
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
2006-12-20 12:58:33 +08:00
|
|
|
.B dyngroup
|
|
|
|
|
Dynamic Group.
|
|
|
|
|
This is a demo overlay which extends the Compare operation to detect
|
|
|
|
|
members of a dynamic group.
|
|
|
|
|
It has no effect on any other operations.
|
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
|
|
|
.B dynlist
|

|
|
|
Dynamic List.
|

|
.TP
|
|
|
|
|
.B pcache
|
|
|
|
|
Proxycache.
|
|
|
|
|
This overlay allows caching of LDAP search requests in a local database.
|
|
|
|
|
It is most often used with the
|
|

|
|
|
|

.TP
|
|
|
|
|
.B ppolicy
|
|
|
|
|
Password Policy.
|
|
|
|
|
This overlay provides a variety of password control mechanisms,
|
|
|
|
|
e.g. password aging, password reuse and duplication control, mandatory
|
|
|
|
|
password resets, etc.
|
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
|
|
|
.B refint
|
|
|
|
|
Referential Integrity.
|
|
|
|
|
This overlay can be used with a backend database such as
|
|
|
|
|
.BR slapd-bdb (5)
|
|
|
|
|
to maintain the cohesiveness of a schema which utilizes reference
|
|
|
|
|
attributes.
|
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
|
|
|
.B retcode
|
|
|
|
|
Return Code.
|
|
|
|
|
This overlay is useful to test the behavior of clients when
|
|
|
|
|
server-generated erroneous and/or unusual responses occur.
|
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
|
|
|
.B rwm
|
|
|
|
|
Rewrite/remap.
|
|
|
|
|
This overlay is experimental.
|
|
|
|
|
It performs basic DN/data rewrite and
|
|
|
|
|
objectClass/attributeType mapping.
|
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
|
|
|
.B syncprov
|
|
|
|
|
Syncrepl Provider.
|
|
|
|
|
This overlay implements the provider-side support for
|
|
|
|
|
.B syncrepl
|
|
|
|
|
replication, including persistent search functionality.
|
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
|
|
|
.B translucent
|
|
|
|
|
Translucent Proxy.
|
|
|
|
|
This overlay can be used with a backend database such as
|
|
|
|
|
.BR slapd-bdb (5)
|
|
|
|
|
to create a "translucent proxy".
|
|
|
|
|
Content of entries retrieved from a remote LDAP server can be partially
|
|
|
|
|
overridden by the database.
|
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
|
|
|
.B unique
|
|
|
|
|
Attribute Uniqueness.
|
|
|
|
|
This overlay can be used with a backend database such as
|
|
|
|
|
.BR slapd-bdb (5)
|
|
|
|
|
to enforce the uniqueness of some or all attributes within a subtree.

|
|
|
|
.B valsort
