.LP
The different configuration options are:
.TP
.B URI <ldap[s]://[name[:port]] ...>
.B URI <ldap[si]://[name[:port]] ...>
Specifies the URI(s) of an LDAP server(s) to which the
.I LDAP
library should connect. The URI scheme may be either
.B ldap
or
library should connect. The URI scheme may be any of
.BR ldap ,
.B ldaps
which refer to LDAP over TCP and LDAP over SSL (TLS) respectively.
or
.BR ldapi ,
which refer to LDAP over TCP, LDAP over SSL (TLS) and LDAP
over local sockets, respectively.
Each server's name can be specified as a
domain-style name or an IP address literal. Optionally, the
server's name can followed by a ':' and the port number the LDAP
server is listening on. If no port number is provided, the default
port for the scheme is used (389 for ldap://, 636 for ldaps://).
For LDAP over local sockets,
.B name
is the name of the socket, and no
.B port
is allowed; note that directory separators must be URL-encoded,
like any other characters that are special to URLs; so the socket
/usr/local/var/ldapi
must be specified as
ldapi://%2Fusr%2Flocal%2Fvar%2Fldapi
A space separated list of URIs may be provided.
