Hello,
What do you call a meta proxy server ? Do you use slapd with two
databases using back_ldap ? Do you use slapd with an unique database and
sync data from both AD & LDAP server to this unique database ?
Yes.
If you have multiple databases, you can't expect to have all
information
combine in the result of an unique request. Slapd will select the
database to request according the base DN of the query (-b parameter of
ldapsearch).
Ahh ... okay. Then I misunderstood that.
If you want to merge information about a same user (for instance)
from
both AD & LDAP directories in an unique user object in your meta LDAP
directory, I mean you have to code a merging tool that request your AD &
LDAP directories and put the merged resulting object in your meta directory.
Thank you very much for that explanation! :)
