I am trying to set up openldap to use back-sql and mysql (currently on Fedora 14 with packages openldap-servers-sql-2.4.23-4.fc14.x86_64, openldap-2.4.23-4.fc14.x86_64, openldap-clients-2.4.23-4.fc14.x86_64, openldap-servers-2.4.23-4.fc14.x86_64).
Is it true that to do this openldap must use the old slapd.conf method rather than the newer dynamic configuration method using slapd.d? I can get back-sql working using config from /etc/openldap/slapd.conf, but when I try to create the equivalent config under slapd.d I can't see any where to put the equivalent of dbname, subtree_cond etc., and I see a warning "No dynamic config support for database sql".
If it *is* true that slapd.conf must be used for back-sql config, can openldap use slapd.conf and slapd.d config at the same time, or must all the openldap config come from slapd.conf?

This is exactly telling you that back-sql does not support dynamic configuration.

All configuration must come from slapd.conf.

Thanks for the quick reply. Are there any plans to implement dynamic configuration support for back-sql?
