Chapter 3. Configuring Directory Databases

Attributes

Value

 

 

nsslapd-sizelimit

Default size limit for the database link, given

 

in number of entries. The default value is

 

2000 entries.

 

 

nsFarmServerURL

Gives the LDAP URL of the remote server (or

 

farm server) that contains the data. This

 

attribute can contain optional servers for

 

failover, separated by spaces. If using

 

cascading chaining, this URL can point to

 

another database link.

 

 

nsMultiplexorBindDN

DN of the administrative entry used to

 

communicate with the remote server. The

 

term multiplexor in the name of the attribute

 

means the server which contains the

 

database link and communicates with the

 

remote server. This bind DN cannot be the

 

Directory Manager. If this attribute is not

 

specified, the database link binds as

 

anonymous.

 

 

nsMultiplexorCredentials

Password for the administrative user, given in

 

plain text. If no password is provided, it

 

means that users can bind as anonymous.

 

The password is encrypted in the

 

configuration file.

 

 

nsCheckLocalACI

Reserved for advanced use only. Controls

 

whether ACIs are evaluated on the database

 

link as well as the remote data server. Takes

 

the values on or off. Changes to this attribute

 

occur only after the server has been restarted.

 

The default value is off.

 

 

nsProxiedAuthorization

Reserved for advanced use only. Disables

 

proxied authorization. A value of off means

 

proxied authorization is disabled. The default

 

value is on.

 

 

nsActiveChainingComponents

Lists the components using chaining. A

 

component is any functional unit in the server.

 

The value of this attribute in the database link

 

instance overrides the value in the global

 

configuration attribute. To disable chaining on

 

a particular database instance, use the value

 

none. The default policy is not to allow

 

chaining. For more information, see

 

Section 3.1.1, “Chaining Component

 

Operations”.
