Administering LDAP-UX Client Services

Using The LDAP-UX Client Daemon

 

negcache_ttl=<1-2147483647>

 

The time, in seconds, before a cache entry expires from

 

the negative cache. There is no [general] default

 

value for this setting. Each cache section has its own

 

default value.

[passwd]

Cache settings for the passwd cache (which caches

 

name, uid and shadow information).

 

setting=value

 

enable=<yesno>

 

ldapclientd only caches entries for this section, when

 

it is enabled. If the cache is not enabled, ldapclientd

 

will query the directory server for any entry request

 

from this section. Since this impacts LDAP-UX client

 

performance and response time, by default, caching is

 

enabled.

 

poscache_ttl=<0-2147483647>

 

The time, in seconds, before a cache entry expires from

 

the positive cache. Since personal data can change

 

frequently, this value is typically smaller than some

 

others.

 

The default value is 120 (2 minutes)

 

negcache_ttl=<1-2147483647>

 

The time, in seconds, before a cache entry expires from

 

the negative cache.

 

The default value is 240 (4 minutes).

[group]

Cache settings for the group cache (which caches name,

 

gid and membership information).

 

setting=value

 

enable=<yesno>

 

ldapclientd only caches entries for this section, when

 

it is enabled. By default, caching is enabled.

 

poscache_ttl=<0-2147483647>

 

The time, in seconds, before a cache entry expires from

 

the positive cache. Since people are added and removed

 

from groups occasionally, this value is not typically

 

large.

 

The default value is 240 (4 minutes)
