I've got 3 databases on a server dc=a,dc=com dc=b,dc=com,dc=de dc=c,dc=com,dc=fr

When on a client side a pointed BASE "" the server says: slapd[13330]: do_search: invalid dn ("")

Should I reconfigure my database maybe and set dn to "" ? If yes how should the root dn look like ? dn: "" dc: "" objectClass: top objectClass: domain structuralObjectClass: domain

The easiest thing to do is to create a single database, with a root of "". You don't need to create an entry for "" itself, as it is inherent to the openldap directory server.

First entry would (in your case) likely be for dn: dc=com

dn: dc=com objectClass: organization objectClass: dcObject o: com domain dc: com

But in my case not all of my domains finishs on .com in the end. So beside a.com I've got b.com.de and b.com.fr, so in that case I'm not sure the root "com" would do, so maybe making root as .corp and then a.com.corp, b.com.de.corp, c.com.fr.corp. And one more think, is that statement which combines all parts of a domain in one dc would be ok ? dn="ou=People,dc=b.com.de,dc=corp" Would't it spoil something ?

You are missing the point of using "". ;) The point of using "" is that you can store any and all domains in the same database.

In your case, if you have .de and .fr, then create entries for them too:

dn: dc=com objectClass: organization objectClass: dcObject o: com domain dc: com

dn: dc=de objectClass: organization objectClass: dcObject o: de domain dc: de

dn: dc=com, dc=de objectClass: organization objectClass: dcObject o: com.de domain dc: com

dn: dc=fr objectClass: organization objectClass: dcObject o: fr domain dc: fr

dn: dc=com, dc=fr objectClass: organization objectClass: dcObject o: com.fr domain dc: com

etc.

You could even create:

dn: cn=IamWildAndCrazy objectClass: organizationalRole description: Insane entry cn: IamWildAndCrazy

Ok, thanx, I do understand that, but my point is, where I can put those "" in configuration files ? On a client side set BASE "" and in slapd.conf

database bdb suffix "" rootdn "cn=admin"

?

How persisly set config files (client, server) to search for all of those domains You listed.
