================ Written by Hallvard B. Furuseth and placed into the public domain. This software is not subject to any license of the University of Oslo. ================ It has just occurred to me - duh - that the process ID of a back-shell command is a perfectly good unique ID for it, and more useful than any connection id/message id thingy. Doesn't need extra arguments to the shell commands either, except a pid: line to abandon. And msgid: can still be removed in a future version. Here is a patch. Hallvard B. Furuseth <h.b.furuseth@usit.uio.no>, May 2002.

.SH NAME
|
|
slapd-shell \- Shell backend to slapd
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
ETCDIR/slapd.conf
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
The Shell backend to
|
|
.BR slapd (8)
|
|
executes external programs to implement operations, and is designed to
|
|
make it easy to tie an existing database to the
|
|
.B slapd
|
|
front-end.
|
|
.SH WARNING
|
|
.B "This backend's calling conventions have changed since OpenLDAP 2.0."
|
|
The abandon operation now gets a new "pid:" line.
|
|
The "msgid:" lines will be removed in a future version.
|
|
.SH CONFIGURATION
|
|
These
|
|
.B slapd.conf
|
|
options apply to the SHELL backend database.
|
|
That is, they must follow a "database shell" line and come before any
|
|
subsequent "backend" or "database" lines.
|
|
Other database options are described in the
|
|
.BR slapd.conf (5)
|
|
manual page.
|
|
.LP
|
|
These options specify the pathname and arguments of the program to
|
|
execute in response to the given LDAP operation.
|
|
Each option is followed by the input lines that the program receives:
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B abandon <pathname> <argument>...

|
|
Note that you need only supply configuration lines for those commands you
|
|
want the backend to handle.
|
|
Operations for which a command is not supplied will be refused with an
|
|
"unwilling to perform" error.
|
|
.LP
|
|
The commands - except \fBabandon\fP and \fBunbind\fP - should output:
|
|
.RS
|
|
.nf
|
|
RESULT
|
|
code: <integer>
|
|
matched: <matched DN>
|
|
info: <text>
|
|
.fi
|
|
.RE
|
|
where only RESULT is mandatory.
|
|
The \fBsearch\fP RESULT should be preceded by the entries in LDIF
|
|
format, each entry followed by a blank line.
|
|
Lines starting with `#' or `DEBUG:' are ignored.
|
|
.SH EXAMPLE
|
|
There is an example search script in the slapd/back-shell/ directory
|
|
in the OpenLDAP source tree.
