It must +appear after the +.B overlay +directive: +.TP +.B lastbind-precision <seconds> +The value +.B <seconds> +is the number of seconds after which to update the +.B authTimestamp +attribute in an entry. If the existing value of +.B authTimestamp +is less than +.B <seconds> +old, it will not be changed. +If this configuration option is omitted, the +.B authTimestamp +attribute is updated on each successful bind operation. +.TP +.B lastbind_forward_updates +Specify that updates of the authTimestamp attribute +on a consumer should be forwarded +to a provider instead of being written directly into the consumer's local +database. This setting is only useful on a replication consumer, and +also requires the +.B updateref +setting and +.B chain +overlay to be appropriately configured. + +.SH EXAMPLE +This example configures the +.B lastbind +overlay to store +.B authTimestamp +in all entries in a database, with a 1 week precision. +Add the following to +.BR slapd.conf (5): + +.LP +.nf + database <database> + # ... + + overlay lastbind + lastbind-precision 604800 +.fi +.LP +.B slapd +must also load +.B lastbind.la, +if compiled as a run-time module; + +.SH FILES +.TP +ETCDIR/slapd.conf +default slapd configuration file +.SH SEE ALSO +.BR slapd.conf (5), +.BR slapd (8). +The +.BR slapo-lastbind (5) +overlay supports dynamic configuration via +.BR back-config. +.SH ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS +.P +This module was written in 2009 by Jonathan Clarke.
