2.3.1.89 nsslapd-saslpath

Sets the absolute path to the directory containing the Cyrus-SASL SASL2 plug-ins. Normally, the HP-UX Directory Server cannot use the system SASL libraries because they may not be provided or they may be the wrong version. Setting this attribute allows the server to use custom or non-standard SASL plug-in libraries. This is usually set correctly during installation, and HP strongly recommends not changing this attribute.

If this parameter is set, the server uses the specified path for loading SASL plugins. If this parameter is not set, the server uses the SASL_PATH environment variable. If neither nsslapd-saslpathor SASL_PATH are set, the server attempts to load SASL plugins from the default location, /opt/dirsrv/lib/sasl2.

Changes made to this attribute will not take effect until the server is restarted.

Parameter

Description

Entry DN

cn=config

 

 

Valid Values

Path to plugins directory.

 

 

Default Value

/opt/dirsrv/lib/sasl2

 

 

Syntax

DirectoryString

 

 

Example

nsslapd-saslpath: /opt/dirsrv/lib/sasl2

 

 

2.3.1.90 nsslapd-schema-ignore-trailing-spaces (Ignore trailing spaces in object class names)

Ignores trailing spaces in object class names. By default, the attribute is turned off. If the directory contains entries with object class values that end in one or more spaces, turn this attribute on. It is preferable to remove the trailing spaces because the LDAP standards do not allow them.

For performance reasons, a server restart is required for changes to take effect.

An error is returned by default when object classes that include trailing spaces are added to an entry. Additionally, during operations such as add, modify, and import (when object classes are expanded and missing superiors are added) trailing spaces are ignored, if appropriate. This means that even when nsslapd-schema-ignore-trailing-spacesis on, a value such as top is not added if top is already there. An error message is logged and returned to the client if an object class is not found and it contains trailing spaces.

Parameter

Description

Entry DN

cn=config

 

 

Valid Values

on or off
