Hi,
I want to know what are the differences between using BerkeleyDB or LDBM as backend, and if i use LDBM, what are the differences using BerkeleyDB or GDBM as API? Which is faster, or more stable? In which cases is better to use one instead of the other?
Hope anyone can help, thanks.

BerkeleyDB and LDBM are database libraries, not backends.
The difference between the back-bdb backend and the back-ldbm backend is that back-bdb works, and back-ldbm doesn't. That's why back-ldbm has been deleted from OpenLDAP 2.4.

"back-ldbm is obsolete and should not be used."
There's not much else to say about LDBM.
Ciao, Michael.
