So my questions are:
- Where should I be putting my Berkeley DB configuration options,
especially related to automated checkpoints and automatic log removal? slapd.conf or DB_CONFIG?
Whichever you prefer. All doing it in slapd.conf does is make it create a DB_CONFIG file with those options. I will note that the "checkpoint" directive in slapd.conf is not a DB_CONFIG file option.
- Is there some other option I have to use to have slapd actually remove
old log files once they're not needed for a transaction anymore?
The option to remove old log files is a DB_CONFIG option that you can put into slapd.conf. See the DB_CONFIG documentation. You must also have check points defined.
By the way, this is mostly a problem for my slapo-accesslog database, which has significantly more data in it (by a factor of almost 100) than my actual database. The insanity of all this is that I really just need to grab the last successful bind and last unsuccessful bind date for each user account, and I can't seem to find a better way to do it than with slapo-accesslog. Is there some other much more obvious flag or something I could set on my LDAP server that would just record the last bind attempt timestamps for each user account?
Use ppolicy maybe? I think that has last login tracking info.
