Hi all,
I wanted to read up on indexing, and I noticed that, in the admin guide, the index directive is under par. 6.2.5.6. So it seems as if this is specific to the ldbm backend ( par. 6.2.5 ). I was under the impression that index directives were valid for bdb backends too. So, can I use index directives for bdb? And is the syntax in 6.2.5.6 still valid? Thanks for your answers. Best regards,
Gerard Ranke

I'd look at the slapd-bdb man page.
You are correct, however, the Admin guide needs some updating, as both cachesize and index are not solely a part of LDBM (which will be removed in 2.4).

That would be best.

Chapter 5 of the Admin Guide contains more up to date examples, using back-bdb and back-hdb instead of back-ldbm.
