Hi all, I want to create a ldap type batabase in my ldap server as explained in the man SLAPD-LDAP(5).
database ldap ( man: This backend acts as a proxy to forward incoming requests to another LDAP server.) suffix "dc=RAFFO,dc=IT" uri "ldap://151.98.181.93/dc=RAFFO,dc=IT " rootdn ""cn=Manager,dc=RAFFO,dc=IT" rootpw secret binddn "cn=Manager,dc=RAFFO,dc=IT" bindpw secret lastmod off
but it doesn't work because I get this error:
Unrecognized database type (ldap)
Can you help me thanks Raffo

Either you failed to load the back-ldap module, or you have a version of slapd that was compiled without support for it.

I thing to have version of slapd that doesn't have support for back-ldap module. On the openldap site I find only one version with back-ldap but it is for Suse. Where I can find an ldap version with this module?
Thanks a lot, Raffo

What OS are you using and what version? I use Red Hat RHAS4, Centos 5 and Fedora FC6 and Buchan Milne's (slightly modified) srpm spec will build OpenLDAP 2.3.35 with back-ldap support on all of these.
I refuse to install any software (cpan's an exception) any longer on Red Hat derivatives that isn't installed with rpm.

Really, this question should be directed to the support mechanisms of your distribution. They will have a much better idea of how they have built your binary than we will.
If the package is indeed built without back-ldap (note that most distributions build it as a loadable module, so first check the contents of the package to see if it contains back-ldap.*), then building/finding a suitable package would be relevant to this list.
