Re: slapd.d syntax help for ldap proxy server

Does anyone have a working ldap proxy configuration script? Some attributes such as olcURI are not welcomed with slapd on ubuntu 10.10. My goals is to make a standalone proxy.

Make sure you're actually using a valid schema.

ldapsearch -Y EXTERNAL -H ldapi:/// -b cn=schema,cn=config -s base

Read the definition of the olcLDAPConfig objectclass.

If you still can't figure that out, then just write a regular slapd.conf and convert it to cn=config format using slaptest.

TIA, Anton

This should be a ldap database, not a hdb database
