Hi there, There is this impressive section on the documentation which explains clearly on the config LDIF structure. However, i cannot find any documentation on how to go about using it. From a fresh install, how do I go about setting up the configuration using cn=config? How do I add new database into cn=config? How do I modify the attributes in cn=config? This is a very good feature but where are the documentation? Can someone pls shed some light. Thank You.
There is not much documentation yet, except for slapd.conf(5). To set up cn=config from a fresh installation, depending on your Version, 1. add a database config, with rootdn cn=config and rootpw as first instance to slapd.conf 2. create a directory etc/openldap/slapd.d/ 3. run ./slapd -h "ldap:///" -F /etc/openldap/slapd.d/ -f /etc/openldap/slapd.conf
To add settings or change values, point your preferred ldap editor to suffix cn=config and bind as cn=config
