Introduction to OpenLDAP Directory Services</A></H1> -<P>This document describes how to build, configure, and operate <A HREF="https://www.openldap.org/">OpenLDAP</A> Software to provide directory services. This includes details on how to configure and run the Standalone <TERM>LDAP</TERM> Daemon, <EM>slapd</EM>(8). It is intended for new and experienced administrators alike. This section provides a basic introduction to directory services and, in particular, the directory services provided by <EM>slapd</EM>(8). This introduction is only intended to provide enough information so one might get started learning about <TERM>LDAP</TERM>, <TERM>X.500</TERM>, and directory services.</P> -<H2><A NAME="What is a directory service">1.1. What is a directory service?</A></H2> -<P>A directory is a specialized database specifically designed for searching and browsing, in additional to supporting basic lookup and update functions.</P> -<P><HR WIDTH="80%" ALIGN="Left"> -<STRONG>Note: </STRONG>A directory is defined by some as merely a database optimized for read access. This definition, at best, is overly simplistic. -<HR WIDTH="80%" ALIGN="Left"></P> -<P>Directories tend to contain descriptive, attribute-based information and support sophisticated filtering capabilities. Directories generally do not support complicated transaction or roll-back schemes found in database management systems designed for handling high-volume complex updates. Directory updates are typically simple all-or-nothing changes, if they are allowed at all. Directories are generally tuned to give quick response to high-volume lookup or search operations. They may have the ability to replicate information widely in order to increase availability and reliability, while reducing response time. When directory information is replicated, temporary inconsistencies between the consumers may be okay, as long as inconsistencies are resolved in a timely manner.</P> -<P>There are many different ways to provide a directory service. Different methods allow different kinds of information to be stored in the directory, place different requirements on how that information can be referenced, queried and updated, how it is protected from unauthorized access, etc. Some directory services are <EM>local</EM>, providing service to a restricted context (e.g., the finger service on a single machine). Other services are global, providing service to a much broader context (e.g., the entire Internet). Global services are usually <EM>distributed</EM>, meaning that the data they contain is spread across many machines, all of which cooperate to provide the directory service. Typically a global service defines a uniform <EM>namespace</EM> which gives the same view of the data no matter where you are in relation to the data itself.</P> -<P>A web directory, such as provided by the <EM>Curlie Project</EM> <<A HREF="https://curlie.org">https://curlie.org</A>>, is a good example of a directory service. These services catalog web pages and are specifically designed to support browsing and searching.</P> -<P>While some consider the Internet <TERM>Domain Name System</TERM> (DNS) is an example of a globally distributed directory service, DNS is not browsable nor searchable. It is more properly described as a globally distributed <EM>lookup</EM> service.</P> -<H2><A NAME="What is LDAP">1.2. What is LDAP?</A></H2> -<P><TERM>LDAP</TERM> stands for <TERM>Lightweight Directory Access Protocol</TERM>. As the name suggests, it is a lightweight protocol for accessing directory services, specifically <TERM>X.500</TERM>-based directory services. LDAP runs over <TERM>TCP</TERM>/<TERM>IP</TERM> or other connection oriented transfer services. LDAP is an <A HREF="https://www.ietf.org/">IETF</A> Standard Track protocol and is specified in "Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) Technical Specification Road Map" <A HREF="https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc4510.txt">RFC4510</A>.</P> -<P>This section gives an overview of LDAP from a user's perspective.</P> -<P><EM>What kind of information can be stored in the directory?</EM> The LDAP information model is based on <EM>entries</EM>. An entry is a collection of attributes that has a globally-unique <TERM>Distinguished Name</TERM> (DN). The DN is used to refer to the entry unambiguously. Each of the entry's attributes has a <EM>type</EM> and one or more <EM>values</EM>. The types are typically mnemonic strings, like "<TT>cn</TT>" for common name, or "<TT>mail</TT>" for email address. The syntax of values depend on the attribute type. For example, a <TT>cn</TT> attribute might contain the value <TT>Babs Jensen</TT>. A <TT>mail</TT> attribute might contain the value "<TT>babs@example.com</TT>". A <TT>jpegPhoto</TT> attribute would contain a photograph in the <TERM>JPEG</TERM> (binary) format.</P> -<P><EM>How is the information arranged?</EM> In LDAP, directory entries are arranged in a hierarchical tree-like structure. Traditionally, this structure reflected the geographic and/or organizational boundaries. Entries representing countries appear at the top of the tree. Below them are entries representing states and national organizations. Below them might be entries representing organizational units, people, printers, documents, or just about anything else you can think of. Figure 1.1 shows an example LDAP directory tree using traditional naming.</P> -<P><CENTER><IMG SRC="intro_tree.png" ALIGN="center"></CENTER></P> -<P ALIGN="Center">Figure 1.1: LDAP directory tree (traditional naming)</P> -<P>The tree may also be arranged based upon Internet domain names. This naming approach is becoming increasing popular as it allows for directory services to be located using the <EM>DNS</EM>. Figure 1.2 shows an example LDAP directory tree using domain-based naming.</P> -<P><CENTER><IMG SRC="intro_dctree.png" ALIGN="center"></CENTER></P> -<P ALIGN="Center">Figure 1.2: LDAP directory tree (Internet naming)</P> -<P>In addition, LDAP allows you to control which attributes are required and allowed in an entry through the use of a special attribute called <TT>objectClass</TT>. The values of the <TT>objectClass</TT> attribute determine the <EM>schema</EM> rules the entry must obey.</P> -<P><EM>How is the information referenced?</EM> An entry is referenced by its distinguished name, which is constructed by taking the name of the entry itself (called the <TERM>Relative Distinguished Name</TERM> or RDN) and concatenating the names of its ancestor entries. For example, the entry for Barbara Jensen in the Internet naming example above has an RDN of <TT>uid=babs</TT> and a DN of <TT>uid=babs,ou=People,dc=example,dc=com</TT>. The full DN format is described in <A HREF="https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc4514.txt">RFC4514</A>, "LDAP: String Representation of Distinguished Names."</P> -<P><EM>How is the information accessed?</EM> LDAP defines operations for interrogating and updating the directory. Operations are provided for adding and deleting an entry from the directory, changing an existing entry, and changing the name of an entry. Most of the time, though, LDAP is used to search for information in the directory. The LDAP search operation allows some portion of the directory to be searched for entries that match some criteria specified by a search filter. Information can be requested from each entry that matches the criteria.</P> -<P>For example, you might want to search the entire directory subtree at and below <TT>dc=example,dc=com</TT> for people with the name <TT>Barbara Jensen</TT>, retrieving the email address of each entry found. LDAP lets you do this easily. Or you might want to search the entries directly below the <TT>st=California,c=US</TT> entry for organizations with the string <TT>Acme</TT> in their name, and that have a fax number. LDAP lets you do this too. The next section describes in more detail what you can do with LDAP and how it might be useful to you.</P> -<P><EM>How is the information protected from unauthorized access?</EM> Some directory services provide no protection, allowing anyone to see the information. LDAP provides a mechanism for a client to authenticate, or prove its identity to a directory server, paving the way for rich access control to protect the information the server contains. LDAP also supports data security (integrity and confidentiality) services.</P> -<H2><A NAME="When should I use LDAP">1.3. When should I use LDAP?</A></H2> -<P>This is a very good question. In general, you should use a Directory server when you require data to be centrally managed, stored and accessible via standards based methods.</P> -<P>Some common examples found throughout the industry are, but not limited to:</P> -<UL> -<LI>Machine Authentication -<LI>User Authentication -<LI>User/System Groups -<LI>Address book -<LI>Organization Representation -<LI>Asset Tracking -<LI>Telephony Information Store -<LI>User resource management -<LI>E-mail address lookups -<LI>Application Configuration store -<LI>PBX Configuration store -<LI>etc.....</UL> -<P>There are various <A HREF="#Distributed Schema Files">Distributed Schema Files</A> that are standards based, but you can always create your own <A HREF="#Schema Specification">Schema Specification</A>.</P> -<P>There are always new ways to use a Directory and apply LDAP principles to address certain problems, therefore there is no simple answer to this question.</P> -<P>If in doubt, join the general LDAP forum for non-commercial discussions and information relating to LDAP at: <A HREF="http://www.umich.edu/~dirsvcs/ldap/mailinglist.html">http://www.umich.edu/~dirsvcs/ldap/mailinglist.html</A> and ask</P> -<H2><A NAME="When should I not use LDAP">1.4. When should I not use LDAP?</A></H2> -<P>When you start finding yourself bending the directory to do what you require, maybe a redesign is needed. Or if you only require one application to use and manipulate your data (for discussion of LDAP vs RDBMS, please read the <A HREF="#LDAP vs RDBMS">LDAP vs RDBMS</A> section).</P> -<P>It will become obvious when LDAP is the right tool for the job.</P> -<H2><A NAME="How does LDAP work">1.5. How does LDAP work?</A></H2> -<P>LDAP utilizes a <EM>client-server model</EM>. One or more LDAP servers contain the data making up the directory information tree (<TERM>DIT</TERM>). The client connects to servers and asks it a question. The server responds with an answer and/or with a pointer to where the client can get additional information (typically, another LDAP server). No matter which LDAP server a client connects to, it sees the same view of the directory; a name presented to one LDAP server references the same entry it would at another LDAP server. This is an important feature of a global directory service.</P> -<H2><A NAME="What about X.500">1.6. What about X.500?</A></H2> -<P>Technically, <TERM>LDAP</TERM> is a directory access protocol to an <TERM>X.500</TERM> directory service, the <TERM>OSI</TERM> directory service. Initially, LDAP clients accessed gateways to the X.500 directory service. This gateway ran LDAP between the client and gateway and X.500's <TERM>Directory Access Protocol</TERM> (<TERM>DAP</TERM>) between the gateway and the X.500 server. DAP is a heavyweight protocol that operates over a full OSI protocol stack and requires a significant amount of computing resources. LDAP is designed to operate over <TERM>TCP</TERM>/<TERM>IP</TERM> and provides most of the functionality of DAP at a much lower cost.</P> -<P>While LDAP is still used to access X.500 directory service via gateways, LDAP is now more commonly directly implemented in X.500 servers.</P> -<P>The Standalone LDAP Daemon, or <EM>slapd</EM>(8), can be viewed as a <EM>lightweight</EM> X.500 directory server. That is, it does not implement the X.500's DAP nor does it support the complete X.500 models.</P> -<P>If you are already running a X.500 DAP service and you want to continue to do so, you can probably stop reading this guide. This guide is all about running LDAP via <EM>slapd</EM>(8), without running X.500 DAP. If you are not running X.500 DAP, want to stop running X.500 DAP, or have no immediate plans to run X.500 DAP, read on.</P> -<P>It is possible to replicate data from an LDAP directory server to a X.500 DAP <TERM>DSA</TERM>. This requires an LDAP/DAP gateway. OpenLDAP Software does not include such a gateway.</P> -<H2><A NAME="What is the difference between LDAPv2 and LDAPv3">1.7. What is the difference between LDAPv2 and LDAPv3?</A></H2> -<P>LDAPv3 was developed in the late 1990's to replace LDAPv2. LDAPv3 adds the following features to LDAP:</P> -<UL> -<LI>Strong authentication and data security services via <TERM>SASL</TERM> -<LI>Certificate authentication and data security services via <TERM>TLS</TERM> (SSL) -<LI>Internationalization through the use of Unicode -<LI>Referrals and Continuations -<LI>Schema Discovery -<LI>Extensibility (controls, extended operations, and more)</UL> -<P>LDAPv2 is historic (<A HREF="https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3494.txt">RFC3494</A>). As most <EM>so-called</EM> LDAPv2 implementations (including <EM>slapd</EM>(8)) do not conform to the LDAPv2 technical specification, interoperability amongst implementations claiming LDAPv2 support is limited. As LDAPv2 differs significantly from LDAPv3, deploying both LDAPv2 and LDAPv3 simultaneously is quite problematic. LDAPv2 should be avoided. LDAPv2 is disabled by default.</P> -<H2><A NAME="LDAP vs RDBMS">1.8. LDAP vs RDBMS</A></H2> -<P>This question is raised many times, in different forms. The most common, however, is: <EM>Why doesn't OpenLDAP use a relational database management system (RDBMS) instead of an embedded key/value store like LMDB?</EM> In general, expecting that the sophisticated algorithms implemented by commercial-grade RDBMS would make <EM>OpenLDAP</EM> be faster or somehow better and, at the same time, permitting sharing of data with other applications.</P> -<P>The short answer is that use of an embedded database and custom indexing system allows OpenLDAP to provide greater performance and scalability without loss of reliability. OpenLDAP uses <TERM>LMDB</TERM> concurrent / transactional database software.</P> -<P>Now for the long answer. We are all confronted all the time with the choice RDBMSes vs. directories. It is a hard choice and no simple answer exists.</P> -<P>It is tempting to think that having a RDBMS backend to the directory solves all problems. However, it is a pig. This is because the data models are very different. Representing directory data with a relational database is going to require splitting data into multiple tables.</P> -<P>Think for a moment about the person objectclass. Its definition requires attribute types objectclass, sn and cn and allows attribute types userPassword, telephoneNumber, seeAlso and description. All of these attributes are multivalued, so a normalization requires putting each attribute type in a separate table.</P> -<P>Now you have to decide on appropriate keys for those tables. The primary key might be a combination of the DN, but this becomes rather inefficient on most database implementations.</P> -<P>The big problem now is that accessing data from one entry requires seeking on different disk areas. On some applications this may be OK but in many applications performance suffers.</P> -<P>The only attribute types that can be put in the main table entry are those that are mandatory and single-value. You may add also the optional single-valued attributes and set them to NULL or something if not present.</P> -<P>But wait, the entry can have multiple objectclasses and they are organized in an inheritance hierarchy. An entry of objectclass organizationalPerson now has the attributes from person plus a few others and some formerly optional attribute types are now mandatory.</P> -<P>What to do? Should we have different tables for the different objectclasses? This way the person would have an entry on the person table, another on organizationalPerson, etc. Or should we get rid of person and put everything on the second table?</P> -<P>But what do we do with a filter like (cn=*) where cn is an attribute type that appears in many, many objectclasses. Should we search all possible tables for matching entries? Not very attractive.</P> -<P>Once this point is reached, three approaches come to mind. One is to do full normalization so that each attribute type, no matter what, has its own separate table. The simplistic approach where the DN is part of the primary key is extremely wasteful, and calls for an approach where the entry has a unique numeric id that is used instead for the keys and a main table that maps DNs to ids. The approach, anyway, is very inefficient when several attribute types from one or more entries are requested. Such a database, though cumbersomely, can be managed from SQL applications.</P> -<P>The second approach is to put the whole entry as a blob in a table shared by all entries regardless of the objectclass and have additional tables that act as indices for the first table. Index tables are not database indices, but are fully managed by the LDAP server-side implementation. However, the database becomes unusable from SQL. And, thus, a fully fledged database system provides little or no advantage. The full generality of the database is unneeded. Much better to use something light and fast, like <TERM>LMDB</TERM>.</P> -<P>A completely different way to see this is to give up any hopes of implementing the directory data model. In this case, LDAP is used as an access protocol to data that provides only superficially the directory data model. For instance, it may be read only or, where updates are allowed, restrictions are applied, such as making single-value attribute types that would allow for multiple values. Or the impossibility to add new objectclasses to an existing entry or remove one of those present. The restrictions span the range from allowed restrictions (that might be elsewhere the result of access control) to outright violations of the data model. It can be, however, a method to provide LDAP access to preexisting data that is used by other applications. But in the understanding that we don't really have a "directory".</P> -<P>Existing commercial LDAP server implementations that use a relational database are either from the first kind or the third. I don't know of any implementation that uses a relational database to do inefficiently what LMDB does efficiently. For those who are interested in "third way" (exposing EXISTING data from RDBMS as LDAP tree, having some limitations compared to classic LDAP model, but making it possible to interoperate between LDAP and SQL applications):</P> -<P>OpenLDAP includes back-sql - the backend that makes it possible. It uses ODBC + additional metainformation about translating LDAP queries to SQL queries in your RDBMS schema, providing different levels of access - from read-only to full access depending on RDBMS you use, and your schema.</P> -<P>For more information on concept and limitations, see <EM>slapd-sql</EM>(5) man page, or the <A HREF="#Backends">Backends</A> section. There are also several examples for several RDBMSes in <TT>back-sql/rdbms_depend/*</TT> subdirectories.</P> -<H2><A NAME="What is slapd and what can it do">1.9. What is slapd and what can it do?</A></H2> -<P><EM>slapd</EM>(8) is an LDAP directory server that runs on many different platforms. You can use it to provide a directory service of your very own. Your directory can contain pretty much anything you want to put in it. You can connect it to the global LDAP directory service, or run a service all by yourself. Some of slapd's more interesting features and capabilities include:</P> -<P><B>LDAPv3</B>: <EM>slapd</EM> implements version 3 of <TERM>Lightweight Directory Access Protocol</TERM>. <EM>slapd</EM> supports LDAP over both <TERM>IPv4</TERM> and <TERM>IPv6</TERM> and Unix <TERM>IPC</TERM>.</P> -<P><B><TERM>Simple Authentication and Security Layer</TERM></B>: <EM>slapd</EM> supports strong authentication and data security (integrity and confidentiality) services through the use of SASL. <EM>slapd</EM>'s SASL implementation utilizes <A HREF="https://www.cyrusimap.org/sasl/">Cyrus SASL</A> software which supports a number of mechanisms including <TERM>DIGEST-MD5</TERM>, <TERM>EXTERNAL</TERM>, and <TERM>GSSAPI</TERM>.</P> -<P><B><TERM>Transport Layer Security</TERM></B>: <EM>slapd</EM> supports certificate-based authentication and data security (integrity and confidentiality) services through the use of TLS (or SSL). <EM>slapd</EM>'s TLS implementation can utilize <A HREF="https://www.openssl.org/">OpenSSL</A> or <A HREF="https://gnutls.org/">GnuTLS</A>, software.</P> -<P><B>Topology control</B>: <EM>slapd</EM> can be configured to restrict access at the socket layer based upon network topology information. This feature utilizes <EM>TCP wrappers</EM>.</P> -<P><B>Access control</B>: <EM>slapd</EM> provides a rich and powerful access control facility, allowing you to control access to the information in your database(s). You can control access to entries based on LDAP authorization information, <TERM>IP</TERM> address, domain name and other criteria. <EM>slapd</EM> supports both <EM>static</EM> and <EM>dynamic</EM> access control information.</P> -<P><B>Internationalization</B>: <EM>slapd</EM> supports Unicode and language tags.</P> -<P><B>Choice of database backends</B>: <EM>slapd</EM> comes with a variety of different database backends you can choose from. They include <TERM>MDB</TERM>, a hierarchical high-performance transactional database backend; and PASSWD, a simple backend interface to the <EM>passwd</EM>(5) file. The MDB backend utilizes <TERM>LMDB</TERM>.</P> -<P><B>Multiple database instances</B>: <EM>slapd</EM> can be configured to serve multiple databases at the same time. This means that a single <EM>slapd</EM> server can respond to requests for many logically different portions of the LDAP tree, using the same or different database backends.</P> -<P><B>Generic modules API</B>: If you require even more customization, <EM>slapd</EM> lets you write your own modules easily. <EM>slapd</EM> consists of two distinct parts: a front end that handles protocol communication with LDAP clients; and modules which handle specific tasks such as database operations. Because these two pieces communicate via a well-defined <TERM>C</TERM> <TERM>API</TERM>, you can write your own customized modules which extend <EM>slapd</EM> in numerous ways. Also, a number of <EM>programmable database</EM> modules are provided. These allow you to expose external data sources to <EM>slapd</EM> using popular programming languages (<A HREF="https://www.perl.org/">Perl</A>, and <TERM>SQL</TERM>).</P> -<P><B>Threads</B>: <EM>slapd</EM> is threaded for high performance. A single multi-threaded <EM>slapd</EM> process handles all incoming requests using a pool of threads. This reduces the amount of system overhead required while providing high performance.</P> -<P><B>Replication</B>: <EM>slapd</EM> can be configured to maintain shadow copies of directory information. This <EM>single-provider/multiple-consumer</EM> replication scheme is vital in high-volume environments where a single <EM>slapd</EM> installation just doesn't provide the necessary availability or reliability. For extremely demanding environments where a single point of failure is not acceptable, <EM>multi-provider</EM> replication is also available. With <EM>multi-provider</EM> replication two or more nodes can accept write operations allowing for redundancy at the provider level.</P> -<P><EM>slapd</EM> includes support for <EM>LDAP Sync</EM>-based replication.</P> -<P><B>Proxy Cache</B>: <EM>slapd</EM> can be configured as a caching LDAP proxy service.</P> -<P><B>Configuration</B>: <EM>slapd</EM> is highly configurable through a single configuration file which allows you to change just about everything you'd ever want to change. Configuration options have reasonable defaults, making your job much easier. Configuration can also be performed dynamically using LDAP itself, which greatly improves manageability.</P> -<H2><A NAME="What is lloadd and what can it do">1.10.

Configuration Layout</A></H2> -<P>The slapd configuration is stored as a special LDAP directory with a predefined schema and DIT.

A sample config tree is shown in Figure 5.1.</P> -<P><CENTER><IMG SRC="config_dit.png" ALIGN="center"></CENTER></P> -<P ALIGN="Center">Figure 5.1: Sample configuration tree.</P> -<P>Other objects may be part of the configuration but were omitted from the illustration for clarity.</P> -<P>The <EM>slapd-config</EM> configuration tree has a very specific structure. The root of the tree is named <TT>cn=config</TT> and contains global configuration settings. Additional settings are contained in separate child entries:</P> -<UL> -<LI>Dynamically loaded modules<UL> -These may only be used if the <TT>--enable-modules</TT> option was used to configure the software.</UL> -<LI>Schema definitions<UL> -The <TT>cn=schema,cn=config</TT> entry contains the system schema (all the schema that is hard-coded in slapd). -<BR> -Child entries of <TT>cn=schema,cn=config</TT> contain user schema as loaded from config files or added at runtime.</UL> -<LI>Backend-specific configuration -<LI>Database-specific configuration<UL> -Overlays are defined in children of the Database entry. -<BR> -Databases and Overlays may also have other miscellaneous children.</UL></UL> -<P>The usual rules for LDIF files apply to the configuration information: Comment lines beginning with a '<TT>#</TT>' character are ignored. If a line begins with a single space, it is considered a continuation of the previous line (even if the previous line is a comment) and the single leading space is removed. Entries are separated by blank lines.</P> -<P>The general layout of the config LDIF is as follows:</P> -<PRE> - # global configuration settings - dn: cn=config - objectClass: olcGlobal - cn: config - <global config settings> - - # schema definitions - dn: cn=schema,cn=config - objectClass: olcSchemaConfig - cn: schema - <system schema> - - dn: cn={X}core,cn=schema,cn=config - objectClass: olcSchemaConfig - cn: {X}core - <core schema> - - # additional user-specified schema - ... - - # backend definitions - dn: olcBackend=<typeA>,cn=config - objectClass: olcBackendConfig - olcBackend: <typeA> - <backend-specific settings> - - # database definitions - dn: olcDatabase={X}<typeA>,cn=config - objectClass: olcDatabaseConfig - olcDatabase: {X}<typeA> - <database-specific settings> - - # subsequent definitions and settings - ... -</PRE> -<P>Some of the entries listed above have a numeric index <TT>"{X}"</TT> in their names. While most configuration settings have an inherent ordering dependency (i.e., one setting must take effect before a subsequent one may be set), LDAP databases are inherently unordered. The numeric index is used to enforce a consistent ordering in the configuration database, so that all ordering dependencies are preserved. In most cases the index does not have to be provided; it will be automatically generated based on the order in which entries are created.</P> -<P>Configuration directives are specified as values of individual attributes. Most of the attributes and objectClasses used in the slapd configuration have a prefix of <TT>"olc"</TT> (OpenLDAP Configuration) in their names. Generally there is a one-to-one correspondence between the attributes and the old-style <TT>slapd.conf</TT> configuration keywords, using the keyword as the attribute name, with the "olc" prefix attached.</P> -<P>A configuration directive may take arguments. If so, the arguments are separated by whitespace. If an argument contains whitespace, the argument should be enclosed in double quotes <TT>"like this"</TT>. In the descriptions that follow, arguments that should be replaced by actual text are shown in brackets <TT><></TT>.</P> -<P>The distribution contains an example configuration file that will be installed in the <TT>/usr/local/etc/openldap</TT> directory.

The provider database is located at the provider site specified by the <TT>provider</TT> parameter. The consumer database is kept up-to-date with the provider content using the LDAP Content Synchronization protocol. See <A HREF="https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc4533.txt">RFC4533</A> for more information on the protocol.</P> -<P>The <TT>rid</TT> parameter is used for identification of the current <TT>syncrepl</TT> directive within the replication consumer server, where <TT><replica ID></TT> uniquely identifies the syncrepl specification described by the current <TT>syncrepl</TT> directive. <TT><replica ID></TT> is non-negative and is no more than three decimal digits in length.</P> -<P>The <TT>provider</TT> parameter specifies the replication provider site containing the provider content as an LDAP URI. The <TT>provider</TT> parameter specifies a scheme, a host and optionally a port where the provider slapd instance can be found. Either a domain name or IP address may be used for <hostname>. Examples are <TT>ldap://provider.example.com:389</TT> or <TT>ldaps://192.168.1.1:636</TT>. If <port> is not given, the standard LDAP port number (389 or 636) is used. Note that the syncrepl uses a consumer-initiated protocol, and hence its specification is located on the consumer.</P> -<P>The content of the syncrepl consumer is defined using a search specification as its result set. The consumer slapd will send search requests to the provider slapd according to the search specification. The search specification includes <TT>searchbase</TT>, <TT>scope</TT>, <TT>filter</TT>, <TT>attrs</TT>, <TT>exattrs</TT>, <TT>attrsonly</TT>, <TT>sizelimit</TT>, and <TT>timelimit</TT> parameters as in the normal search specification. The <TT>searchbase</TT> parameter has no default value and must always be specified. The <TT>scope</TT> defaults to <TT>sub</TT>, the <TT>filter</TT> defaults to <TT>(objectclass=*)</TT>, <TT>attrs</TT> defaults to <TT>"*,+"</TT> to replicate all user and operational attributes, and <TT>attrsonly</TT> is unset by default. Both <TT>sizelimit</TT> and <TT>timelimit</TT> default to "unlimited", and only positive integers or "unlimited" may be specified. The <TT>exattrs</TT> option may also be used to specify attributes that should be omitted from incoming entries.</P> -<P>The <TERM>LDAP Content Synchronization</TERM> protocol has two operation types: <TT>refreshOnly</TT> and <TT>refreshAndPersist</TT>. The operation type is specified by the <TT>type</TT> parameter. In the <TT>refreshOnly</TT> operation, the next synchronization search operation is periodically rescheduled at an interval time after each synchronization operation finishes. The interval is specified by the <TT>interval</TT> parameter. It is set to one day by default. In the <TT>refreshAndPersist</TT> operation, a synchronization search remains persistent in the provider <EM>slapd</EM> instance. Further updates to the provider will generate <TT>searchResultEntry</TT> to the consumer slapd as the search responses to the persistent synchronization search.</P> -<P>If an error occurs during replication, the consumer will attempt to reconnect according to the retry parameter which is a list of the <retry interval> and <# of retries> pairs. For example, retry="60 10 300 3" lets the consumer retry every 60 seconds for the first 10 times and then retry every 300 seconds for the next three times before stop retrying. + in <# of retries> means indefinite number of retries until success.</P> -<P>The schema checking can be enforced at the LDAP Sync consumer site by turning on the <TT>schemachecking</TT> parameter. If it is turned on, every replicated entry will be checked for its schema as the entry is stored on the consumer. Every entry in the consumer should contain those attributes required by the schema definition. If it is turned off, entries will be stored without checking schema conformance. The default is off.</P> -<P>The <TT>binddn</TT> parameter gives the DN to bind as for the syncrepl searches to the provider slapd. It should be a DN which has read access to the replication content in the provider database.</P> -<P>The <TT>bindmethod</TT> is <TT>simple</TT> or <TT>sasl</TT>, depending on whether simple password-based authentication or <TERM>SASL</TERM> authentication is to be used when connecting to the provider <EM>slapd</EM> instance.</P> -<P>Simple authentication should not be used unless adequate data integrity and confidentiality protections are in place (e.g. TLS or IPsec). Simple authentication requires specification of <TT>binddn</TT> and <TT>credentials</TT> parameters.</P> -<P>SASL authentication is generally recommended. SASL authentication requires specification of a mechanism using the <TT>saslmech</TT> parameter. Depending on the mechanism, an authentication identity and/or credentials can be specified using <TT>authcid</TT> and <TT>credentials</TT>, respectively. The <TT>authzid</TT> parameter may be used to specify an authorization identity.</P> -<P>The <TT>realm</TT> parameter specifies a realm which a certain mechanisms authenticate the identity within. The <TT>secprops</TT> parameter specifies Cyrus SASL security properties.</P> -<P>The <TT>starttls</TT> parameter specifies use of the StartTLS extended operation to establish a TLS session before authenticating to the provider. If the <TT>critical</TT> argument is supplied, the session will be aborted if the StartTLS request fails. Otherwise the syncrepl session continues without TLS. The tls_reqcert setting defaults to <TT>"demand"</TT> and the other TLS settings default to the same as the main slapd TLS settings.</P> -<P>Rather than replicating whole entries, the consumer can query logs of data modifications. This mode of operation is referred to as <EM>delta syncrepl</EM>. In addition to the above parameters, the <TT>logbase</TT> and <TT>logfilter</TT> parameters must be set appropriately for the log that will be used. The <TT>syncdata</TT> parameter must be set to either <TT>"accesslog"</TT> if the log conforms to the <EM>slapo-accesslog</EM>(5) log format, or <TT>"changelog"</TT> if the log conforms to the obsolete <EM>changelog</EM> format.

This mode is slightly faster than doing a full sync, but can potentially lose the last committed transaction if the operating system crashes. If both nometasync and nosync are set, the nosync flag takes precedence. -<LI><TT>writemap</TT>: Use a writable memory map instead of just read-only. This speeds up write operations but makes the database vulnerable to corruption in case any bugs in slapd cause stray writes into the mmap region. -<LI><TT>mapasync</TT>: When using a writable memory map and performing flushes on each commit, use an asynchronous flush instead of a synchronous flush (the default). This option has no effect if writemap has not been set. It also has no effect if nosync is set. -<LI><TT>nordahead</TT>: Turn off file readahead. Usually the OS performs readahead on every read request. This usually boosts read performance but can be harmful to random access read performance if the system's memory is full and the DB is larger than RAM.

If only an <TT><attrlist></TT> is given, the default indices are maintained. The index keywords correspond to the common types of matches that may be used in an LDAP search filter.</P> -<P>Example:</P> -<PRE> - olcDbIndex: default pres,eq - olcDbIndex: uid - olcDbIndex: cn,sn pres,eq,sub - olcDbIndex: objectClass eq -</PRE> -<P>The first line sets the default set of indices to maintain to present and equality. The second line causes the default (pres,eq) set of indices to be maintained for the <TT>uid</TT> attribute type. The third line causes present, equality, and substring indices to be maintained for <TT>cn</TT> and <TT>sn</TT> attribute types. The fourth line causes an equality index for the <TT>objectClass</TT> attribute type.</P> -<P>There is no index keyword for inequality matches. Generally these matches do not use an index. However, some attributes do support indexing for inequality matches, based on the equality index.</P> -<P>A substring index can be more explicitly specified as <TT>subinitial</TT>, <TT>subany</TT>, or <TT>subfinal</TT>, corresponding to the three possible components of a substring match filter. A subinitial index only indexes substrings that appear at the beginning of an attribute value. A subfinal index only indexes substrings that appear at the end of an attribute value, while subany indexes substrings that occur anywhere in a value.</P> -<P>Note that by default, setting an index for an attribute also affects every subtype of that attribute. E.g., setting an equality index on the <TT>name</TT> attribute causes <TT>cn</TT>, <TT>sn</TT>, and every other attribute that inherits from <TT>name</TT> to be indexed.</P> -<P>By default, no indices are maintained. It is generally advised that minimally an equality index upon objectClass be maintained.</P> -<PRE> - olcDbIndex: objectClass eq -</PRE> -<P>Additional indices should be configured corresponding to the most common searches that are used on the database. Presence indexing should not be configured for an attribute unless the attribute occurs very rarely in the database, and presence searches on the attribute occur very frequently during normal use of the directory. Most applications don't use presence searches, so usually presence indexing is not very useful.</P> -<P>If this setting is changed while slapd is running, an internal task will be run to generate the changed index data.

Normally entries are stored as a single blob inside the database. When an entry gets very large or contains attributes with a very large number of values, modifications on that entry may get very slow. Splitting the large attributes out to a separate table can improve the performance of modification operations. The threshold is specified as a pair of integers. If the number of values exceeds the hi threshold the values will be split out. If a modification deletes enough values to bring an attribute below the lo threshold the values will be removed from the separate table and merged back into the main entry blob. The threshold can be set for a specific list of attributes, or the default can be configured for all other attributes. The default value for both hi and lo thresholds is UINT_MAX, which keeps all attributes in the main blob.</P> -<P>In addition to increasing write performance of operations the use of multival can also decrease fragmentation of the primary <TERM>MDB</TERM> database.</P> -<H4><A NAME="olcDbRtxnsize: <entries>">5.2.7.10. olcDbRtxnsize: <entries></A></H4> -<P>This directive specifies the maximum number of entries to process in a single read transaction when executing a large search. Long-lived read transactions prevent old database pages from being reused in write transactions, and so can cause significant growth of the database file when there is heavy write traffic.

Search filters are evaluated on a stack to accommodate nested <TT>AND</TT> / <TT>OR</TT> clauses. An individual stack is allocated for each server thread. The depth of the stack determines how complex a filter can be evaluated without requiring any additional memory allocation. Filters that are nested deeper than the search stack depth will cause a separate stack to be allocated for that particular search operation. These separate allocations can have a major negative impact on server performance, but specifying too much stack will also consume a great deal of memory. Each search uses 512K bytes per level on a 32-bit machine, or 1024K bytes per level on a 64-bit machine. The default stack depth is 16, thus 8MB or 16MB per thread is used on 32 and 64 bit machines, respectively.

The provider database is located at the replication provider site specified by the <TT>provider</TT> parameter. The consumer database is kept up-to-date with the provider content using the LDAP Content Synchronization protocol. See <A HREF="https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc4533.txt">RFC4533</A> for more information on the protocol.</P> -<P>The <TT>rid</TT> parameter is used for identification of the current <TT>syncrepl</TT> directive within the replication consumer server, where <TT><replica ID></TT> uniquely identifies the syncrepl specification described by the current <TT>syncrepl</TT> directive. <TT><replica ID></TT> is non-negative and is no more than three decimal digits in length.</P> -<P>The <TT>provider</TT> parameter specifies the replication provider site containing the provider content as an LDAP URI. The <TT>provider</TT> parameter specifies a scheme, a host and optionally a port where the provider slapd instance can be found. Either a domain name or IP address may be used for <hostname>. Examples are <TT>ldap://provider.example.com:389</TT> or <TT>ldaps://192.168.1.1:636</TT>. If <port> is not given, the standard LDAP port number (389 or 636) is used. Note that the syncrepl uses a consumer-initiated protocol, and hence its specification is located on the consumer.</P> -<P>The content of the syncrepl consumer is defined using a search specification as its result set. The consumer slapd will send search requests to the provider slapd according to the search specification. The search specification includes <TT>searchbase</TT>, <TT>scope</TT>, <TT>filter</TT>, <TT>attrs</TT>, <TT>exattrs</TT>, <TT>attrsonly</TT>, <TT>sizelimit</TT>, and <TT>timelimit</TT> parameters as in the normal search specification. The <TT>searchbase</TT> parameter has no default value and must always be specified. The <TT>scope</TT> defaults to <TT>sub</TT>, the <TT>filter</TT> defaults to <TT>(objectclass=*)</TT>, <TT>attrs</TT> defaults to <TT>"*,+"</TT> to replicate all user and operational attributes, and <TT>attrsonly</TT> is unset by default. Both <TT>sizelimit</TT> and <TT>timelimit</TT> default to "unlimited", and only positive integers or "unlimited" may be specified. The <TT>exattrs</TT> option may also be used to specify attributes that should be omitted from incoming entries.</P> -<P>The <TERM>LDAP Content Synchronization</TERM> protocol has two operation types: <TT>refreshOnly</TT> and <TT>refreshAndPersist</TT>. The operation type is specified by the <TT>type</TT> parameter. In the <TT>refreshOnly</TT> operation, the next synchronization search operation is periodically rescheduled at an interval time after each synchronization operation finishes. The interval is specified by the <TT>interval</TT> parameter. It is set to one day by default. In the <TT>refreshAndPersist</TT> operation, a synchronization search remains persistent in the provider <EM>slapd</EM> instance. Further updates to the provider will generate <TT>searchResultEntry</TT> to the consumer slapd as the search responses to the persistent synchronization search.</P> -<P>If an error occurs during replication, the consumer will attempt to reconnect according to the retry parameter which is a list of the <retry interval> and <# of retries> pairs. For example, retry="60 10 300 3" lets the consumer retry every 60 seconds for the first 10 times and then retry every 300 seconds for the next three times before stop retrying. + in <# of retries> means indefinite number of retries until success.</P> -<P>The schema checking can be enforced at the LDAP Sync consumer site by turning on the <TT>schemachecking</TT> parameter. If it is turned on, every replicated entry will be checked for its schema as the entry is stored on the consumer. Every entry in the consumer should contain those attributes required by the schema definition. If it is turned off, entries will be stored without checking schema conformance. The default is off.</P> -<P>The <TT>network-timeout</TT> parameter sets how long the consumer will wait to establish a network connection to the provider. Once a connection is established, the <TT>timeout</TT> parameter determines how long the consumer will wait for the initial Bind request to complete. The defaults for these parameters come from <EM>ldap.conf</EM>(5).</P> -<P>The <TT>binddn</TT> parameter gives the DN to bind as for the syncrepl searches to the provider slapd. It should be a DN which has read access to the replication content in the provider database.</P> -<P>The <TT>bindmethod</TT> is <TT>simple</TT> or <TT>sasl</TT>, depending on whether simple password-based authentication or <TERM>SASL</TERM> authentication is to be used when connecting to the provider <EM>slapd</EM> instance.</P> -<P>Simple authentication should not be used unless adequate data integrity and confidentiality protections are in place (e.g. TLS or IPsec). Simple authentication requires specification of <TT>binddn</TT> and <TT>credentials</TT> parameters.</P> -<P>SASL authentication is generally recommended. SASL authentication requires specification of a mechanism using the <TT>saslmech</TT> parameter. Depending on the mechanism, an authentication identity and/or credentials can be specified using <TT>authcid</TT> and <TT>credentials</TT>, respectively. The <TT>authzid</TT> parameter may be used to specify an authorization identity.</P> -<P>The <TT>realm</TT> parameter specifies a realm which a certain mechanisms authenticate the identity within. The <TT>secprops</TT> parameter specifies Cyrus SASL security properties.</P> -<P>The <TT>keepalive</TT> parameter sets the values of idle, probes, and interval used to check whether a socket is alive; idle is the number of seconds a connection needs to remain idle before TCP starts sending keepalive probes; probes is the maximum number of keepalive probes TCP should send before dropping the connection; interval is interval in seconds between individual keepalive probes. Only some systems support the customization of these values; the keepalive parameter is ignored otherwise, and system-wide settings are used. For example, keepalive="240:10:30" will send a keepalive probe 10 times, every 30 seconds, after 240 seconds of idle activity. If no response to the probes is received, the connection will be dropped.</P> -<P>The <TT>starttls</TT> parameter specifies use of the StartTLS extended operation to establish a TLS session before authenticating to the provider. If the <TT>critical</TT> argument is supplied, the session will be aborted if the StartTLS request fails. Otherwise the syncrepl session continues without TLS. The tls_reqcert setting defaults to <TT>"demand"</TT> and the other TLS settings default to the same as the main slapd TLS settings.</P> -<P>The <TT>suffixmassage</TT> parameter allows the consumer to pull entries from a remote directory whose DN suffix differs from the local directory. The portion of the remote entries' DNs that matches the searchbase will be replaced with the suffixmassage DN.</P> -<P>Rather than replicating whole entries, the consumer can query logs of data modifications. This mode of operation is referred to as <EM>delta syncrepl</EM>. In addition to the above parameters, the <TT>logbase</TT> and <TT>logfilter</TT> parameters must be set appropriately for the log that will be used. The <TT>syncdata</TT> parameter must be set to either <TT>"accesslog"</TT> if the log conforms to the <EM>slapo-accesslog</EM>(5) log format, or <TT>"changelog"</TT> if the log conforms to the obsolete <EM>changelog</EM> format. If the <TT>syncdata</TT> parameter is omitted or set to <TT>"default"</TT> then the log parameters are ignored.</P> -<P>The <EM>syncrepl</EM> replication mechanism is supported by the <EM>mdb</EM> backend.</P> -<P>See the <A HREF="#LDAP Sync Replication">LDAP Sync Replication</A> chapter of this guide for more information on how to use this directive.</P> -<H4><A NAME="updateref <URL>">6.2.3.8. updateref <URL></A></H4> -<P>This directive is only applicable in a <EM>replica</EM> (or <EM>shadow</EM>) <EM>slapd</EM>(8) instance.

This mode is slightly faster than doing a full sync, but can potentially lose the last committed transaction if the operating system crashes. If both nometasync and nosync are set, the nosync flag takes precedence. -<LI><TT>writemap</TT>: Use a writable memory map instead of just read-only. This speeds up write operations but makes the database vulnerable to corruption in case any bugs in slapd cause stray writes into the mmap region. -<LI><TT>mapasync</TT>: When using a writable memory map and performing flushes on each commit, use an asynchronous flush instead of a synchronous flush (the default). This option has no effect if writemap has not been set. It also has no effect if nosync is set. -<LI><TT>nordahead</TT>: Turn off file readahead. Usually the OS performs readahead on every read request. This usually boosts read performance but can be harmful to random access read performance if the system's memory is full and the DB is larger than RAM.

If only an <TT><attrlist></TT> is given, the default indices are maintained. The index keywords correspond to the common types of matches that may be used in an LDAP search filter.</P> -<P>Example:</P> -<PRE> - index: default pres,eq - index: uid - index: cn,sn pres,eq,sub - index: objectClass eq -</PRE> -<P>The first line sets the default set of indices to maintain to present and equality. The second line causes the default (pres,eq) set of indices to be maintained for the <TT>uid</TT> attribute type. The third line causes present, equality, and substring indices to be maintained for <TT>cn</TT> and <TT>sn</TT> attribute types. The fourth line causes an equality index for the <TT>objectClass</TT> attribute type.</P> -<P>There is no index keyword for inequality matches. Generally these matches do not use an index. However, some attributes do support indexing for inequality matches, based on the equality index.</P> -<P>A substring index can be more explicitly specified as <TT>subinitial</TT>, <TT>subany</TT>, or <TT>subfinal</TT>, corresponding to the three possible components of a substring match filter. A subinitial index only indexes substrings that appear at the beginning of an attribute value. A subfinal index only indexes substrings that appear at the end of an attribute value, while subany indexes substrings that occur anywhere in a value.</P> -<P>Note that by default, setting an index for an attribute also affects every subtype of that attribute. E.g., setting an equality index on the <TT>name</TT> attribute causes <TT>cn</TT>, <TT>sn</TT>, and every other attribute that inherits from <TT>name</TT> to be indexed.</P> -<P>By default, no indices are maintained. It is generally advised that minimally an equality index upon objectClass be maintained.</P> -<PRE> - index: objectClass eq -</PRE> -<P>Additional indices should be configured corresponding to the most common searches that are used on the database. Presence indexing should not be configured for an attribute unless the attribute occurs very rarely in the database, and presence searches on the attribute occur very frequently during normal use of the directory. Most applications don't use presence searches, so usually presence indexing is not very useful.</P> -<H4><A NAME="maxentrysize: <bytes>">6.2.5.6. maxentrysize: <bytes></A></H4> -<P>Specify the maximum size of an entry in bytes.

Normally entries are stored as a single blob inside the database. When an entry gets very large or contains attributes with a very large number of values, modifications on that entry may get very slow. Splitting the large attributes out to a separate table can improve the performance of modification operations. The threshold is specified as a pair of integers. If the number of values exceeds the hi threshold the values will be split out. If a modification deletes enough values to bring an attribute below the lo threshold the values will be removed from the separate table and merged back into the main entry blob. The threshold can be set for a specific list of attributes, or the default can be configured for all other attributes. The default value for both hi and lo thresholds is UINT_MAX, which keeps all attributes in the main blob.</P> -<P>In addition to increasing write performance of operations the use of multival can also decrease fragmentation of the primary <TERM>MDB</TERM> database.</P> -<H4><A NAME="rtxnsize: <entries>">6.2.5.11. rtxnsize: <entries></A></H4> -<P>This directive specifies the maximum number of entries to process in a single read transaction when executing a large search. Long-lived read transactions prevent old database pages from being reused in write transactions, and so can cause significant growth of the database file when there is heavy write traffic. This setting causes the read transaction in large searches to be released and reacquired after the given number of entries has been read, to give writers the opportunity to reclaim old database pages. The default is 10000.</P> -<H4><A NAME="searchstack: <integer>">6.2.5.12. searchstack: <integer></A></H4> -<P>Specify the depth of the stack used for search filter evaluation. Search filters are evaluated on a stack to accommodate nested <TT>AND</TT> / <TT>OR</TT> clauses. An individual stack is allocated for each server thread. The depth of the stack determines how complex a filter can be evaluated without requiring any additional memory allocation. Filters that are nested deeper than the search stack depth will cause a separate stack to be allocated for that particular search operation. These separate allocations can have a major negative impact on server performance, but specifying too much stack will also consume a great deal of memory. Each search uses 512K bytes per level on a 32-bit machine, or 1024K bytes per level on a 64-bit machine. The default stack depth is 16, thus 8MB or 16MB per thread is used on 32 and 64 bit machines, respectively. Also the 512KB size of a single stack slot is set by a compile-time constant which may be changed if needed; the code must be recompiled for the change to take effect.</P> -<P>Default:</P> -<PRE> - searchstack: 16 -</PRE> -<H4><A NAME="Sample Entry">6.2.5.13.

Connections to the ports used by these listeners should be restricted at the network level to only trusted load balancers or proxies to avoid spoofing of client IP addresses by third parties.</P> -<TABLE CLASS="columns" BORDER> -<TR CLASS="heading"> -<TD> -<STRONG>URL</STRONG> -</TD> -<TD> -<STRONG>Protocol</STRONG> -</TD> -<TD> -<STRONG>Transport</STRONG> -</TD> -</TR> -<TR> -<TD> -ldap:/// -</TD> -<TD> -LDAP -</TD> -<TD> -TCP port 389 -</TD> -</TR> -<TR> -<TD> -pldap:/// -</TD> -<TD> -proxied LDAP -</TD> -<TD> -TCP port 389 -</TD> -</TR> -<TR> -<TD> -ldaps:/// -</TD> -<TD> -LDAP over SSL -</TD> -<TD> -TCP port 636 -</TD> -</TR> -<TR> -<TD> -pldaps:/// -</TD> -<TD> -proxied LDAP over SSL -</TD> -<TD> -TCP port 636 -</TD> -</TR> -<TR> -<TD> -ldapi:/// -</TD> -<TD> -LDAP -</TD> -<TD> -IPC (Unix-domain socket) -</TD> -</TR> -</TABLE> - -<P>For example, <TT>-h "ldaps:// ldap://127.0.0.1:666"</TT> will create two listeners: one for the (non-standard) <TT>ldaps://</TT> scheme on all interfaces on the default <TT>ldaps://</TT> port 636, and one for the standard <TT>ldap://</TT> scheme on the <TT>localhost</TT> (<EM>loopback</EM>) interface on port 666.

However, one may use the privileges specifier to grant specific permissions.</P> -<H3><A NAME="Access Control Evaluation">8.2.4. Access Control Evaluation</A></H3> -<P>When evaluating whether some requester should be given access to an entry and/or attribute, slapd compares the entry and/or attribute to the <TT><what></TT> selectors given in the configuration file. For each entry, access controls provided in the database which holds the entry (or the global access directives if not held in any database) apply first, followed by the global access directives. However, when dealing with an access list, because the global access list is effectively appended to each per-database list, if the resulting list is non-empty then the access list will end with an implicit <TT>access to * by * none</TT> directive. If there are no access directives applicable to a backend, then a default read is used.</P> -<P>Within this priority, access directives are examined in the order in which they appear in the config file. Slapd stops with the first <TT><what></TT> selector that matches the entry and/or attribute. The corresponding access directive is the one slapd will use to evaluate access.</P> -<P>Next, slapd compares the entity requesting access to the <TT><who></TT> selectors within the access directive selected above in the order in which they appear. It stops with the first <TT><who></TT> selector that matches the requester. This determines the access the entity requesting access has to the entry and/or attribute.</P> -<P>Finally, slapd compares the access granted in the selected <TT><access></TT> clause to the access requested by the client. If it allows greater or equal access, access is granted. Otherwise, access is denied.</P> -<P>The order of evaluation of access directives makes their placement in the configuration file important. If one access directive is more specific than another in terms of the entries it selects, it should appear first in the config file. Similarly, if one <TT><who></TT> selector is more specific than another it should come first in the access directive. The access control examples given below should help make this clear.</P> -<H3><A NAME="Access Control Examples">8.2.5. Access Control Examples</A></H3> -<P>The access control facility described above is quite powerful. This section shows some examples of its use for descriptive purposes.</P> -<P>A simple example:</P> -<PRE> - access to * by * read -</PRE> -<P>This access directive grants read access to everyone.</P> -<PRE> - access to * - by self write - by anonymous auth - by * read -</PRE> -<P>This directive allows the user to modify their entry, allows anonymous to authenticate against these entries, and allows all others to read these entries. Note that only the first <TT>by <who></TT> clause which matches applies. Hence, the anonymous users are granted <TT>auth</TT>, not <TT>read</TT>. The last clause could just as well have been "<TT>by users read</TT>".</P> -<P>It is often desirable to restrict operations based upon the level of protection in place. The following shows how security strength factors (SSF) can be used.</P> -<PRE> - access to * - by ssf=128 self write - by ssf=64 anonymous auth - by ssf=64 users read -</PRE> -<P>This directive allows users to modify their own entries if security protections of strength 128 or better have been established, allows authentication access to anonymous users, and read access when 64 or better security protections have been established. If a client has not established sufficient security protections, the implicit <TT>by * none</TT> clause would be applied.</P> -<P>The following example shows the use of a style specifiers to select the entries by DN in two access directives where ordering is significant.</P> -<PRE> - access to dn.children="dc=example,dc=com" - by * search - access to dn.children="dc=com" - by * read -</PRE> -<P>Read access is granted to entries under the <TT>dc=com</TT> subtree, except for those entries under the <TT>dc=example,dc=com</TT> subtree, to which search access is granted. No access is granted to <TT>dc=com</TT> as neither access directive matches this DN. If the order of these access directives was reversed, the trailing directive would never be reached, since all entries under <TT>dc=example,dc=com</TT> are also under <TT>dc=com</TT> entries.</P> -<P>Also note that if no <TT>access to</TT> directive matches or no <TT>by <who></TT> clause, <B>access is denied</B>. That is, every <TT>access to</TT> directive ends with an implicit <TT>by * none</TT> clause. When dealing with an access list, because the global access list is effectively appended to each per-database list, if the resulting list is non-empty then the access list will end with an implicit <TT>access to * by * none</TT> directive. If there are no access directives applicable to a backend, then a default read is used.</P> -<P>The next example again shows the importance of ordering, both of the access directives and the <TT>by <who></TT> clauses. It also shows the use of an attribute selector to grant access to a specific attribute and various <TT><who></TT> selectors.</P> -<PRE> - access to dn.subtree="dc=example,dc=com" attrs=homePhone - by self write - by dn.children="dc=example,dc=com" search - by peername.regex=IP=10\..+ read - access to dn.subtree="dc=example,dc=com" - by self write - by dn.children="dc=example,dc=com" search - by anonymous auth -</PRE> -<P>This example applies to entries in the "<TT>dc=example,dc=com</TT>" subtree. To all attributes except <TT>homePhone</TT>, an entry can write to itself, entries under <TT>example.com</TT> entries can search by them, anybody else has no access (implicit <TT>by * none</TT>) excepting for authentication/authorization (which is always done anonymously). The <TT>homePhone</TT> attribute is writable by the entry, searchable by entries under <TT>example.com</TT>, readable by clients connecting from network 10, and otherwise not readable (implicit <TT>by * none</TT>). All other access is denied by the implicit <TT>access to * by * none</TT>.</P> -<P>Sometimes it is useful to permit a particular DN to add or remove itself from an attribute. For example, if you would like to create a group and allow people to add and remove only their own DN from the member attribute, you could accomplish it with an access directive like this:</P> -<PRE> - access to attrs=member,entry - by dnattr=member selfwrite -</PRE> -<P>The dnattr <TT><who></TT> selector says that the access applies to entries listed in the <TT>member</TT> attribute. The <TT>selfwrite</TT> access selector says that such members can only add or delete their own DN from the attribute, not other values.

The second form may be used to select entries by matching a regular expression against the target entry's <EM>normalized DN</EM>. (The second form is not discussed further in this document.) The third form is used to select entries which are within the requested scope of DN. The <DN> is a string representation of the Distinguished Name, as described in <A HREF="https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc4514.txt">RFC4514</A>.</P> -<P>The scope can be either <TT>base</TT>, <TT>one</TT>, <TT>subtree</TT>, or <TT>children</TT>.

So, for example, granting someone <TT>write</TT> access to an entry also grants them <TT>read</TT>, <TT>search</TT>, <TT>compare</TT>, <TT>auth</TT> and <TT>disclose</TT> access. However, one may use the privileges specifier to grant specific permissions.</P> -<H3><A NAME="Access Control Evaluation">8.3.4. Access Control Evaluation</A></H3> -<P>When evaluating whether some requester should be given access to an entry and/or attribute, slapd compares the entry and/or attribute to the <TT><what></TT> selectors given in the configuration. For each entry, access controls provided in the database which holds the entry (or the global access directives if not held in any database) apply first, followed by the global access directives (which are held in the <TT>frontend</TT> database definition). However, when dealing with an access list, because the global access list is effectively appended to each per-database list, if the resulting list is non-empty then the access list will end with an implicit <TT>access to * by * none</TT> directive. If there are no access directives applicable to a backend, then a default read is used.</P> -<P>Within this priority, access directives are examined in the order in which they appear in the configuration attribute. Slapd stops with the first <TT><what></TT> selector that matches the entry and/or attribute. The corresponding access directive is the one slapd will use to evaluate access.</P> -<P>Next, slapd compares the entity requesting access to the <TT><who></TT> selectors within the access directive selected above in the order in which they appear. It stops with the first <TT><who></TT> selector that matches the requester. This determines the access the entity requesting access has to the entry and/or attribute.</P> -<P>Finally, slapd compares the access granted in the selected <TT><access></TT> clause to the access requested by the client. If it allows greater or equal access, access is granted. Otherwise, access is denied.</P> -<P>The order of evaluation of access directives makes their placement in the configuration file important. If one access directive is more specific than another in terms of the entries it selects, it should appear first in the configuration. Similarly, if one <TT><who></TT> selector is more specific than another it should come first in the access directive. The access control examples given below should help make this clear.</P> -<H3><A NAME="Access Control Examples">8.3.5. Access Control Examples</A></H3> -<P>The access control facility described above is quite powerful. This section shows some examples of its use for descriptive purposes.</P> -<P>A simple example:</P> -<PRE> - olcAccess: to * by * read -</PRE> -<P>This access directive grants read access to everyone.</P> -<PRE> - olcAccess: to * - by self write - by anonymous auth - by * read -</PRE> -<P>This directive allows the user to modify their entry, allows anonymous to authenticate against these entries, and allows all others to read these entries. Note that only the first <TT>by <who></TT> clause which matches applies. Hence, the anonymous users are granted <TT>auth</TT>, not <TT>read</TT>. The last clause could just as well have been "<TT>by users read</TT>".</P> -<P>It is often desirable to restrict operations based upon the level of protection in place. The following shows how security strength factors (SSF) can be used.</P> -<PRE> - olcAccess: to * - by ssf=128 self write - by ssf=64 anonymous auth - by ssf=64 users read -</PRE> -<P>This directive allows users to modify their own entries if security protections of strength 128 or better have been established, allows authentication access to anonymous users, and read access when strength 64 or better security protections have been established. If the client has not establish sufficient security protections, the implicit <TT>by * none</TT> clause would be applied.</P> -<P>The following example shows the use of style specifiers to select the entries by DN in two access directives where ordering is significant.</P> -<PRE> - olcAccess: to dn.children="dc=example,dc=com" - by * search - olcAccess: to dn.children="dc=com" - by * read -</PRE> -<P>Read access is granted to entries under the <TT>dc=com</TT> subtree, except for those entries under the <TT>dc=example,dc=com</TT> subtree, to which search access is granted. No access is granted to <TT>dc=com</TT> as neither access directive matches this DN. If the order of these access directives was reversed, the trailing directive would never be reached, since all entries under <TT>dc=example,dc=com</TT> are also under <TT>dc=com</TT> entries.</P> -<P>Also note that if no <TT>olcAccess: to</TT> directive matches or no <TT>by <who></TT> clause, <B>access is denied</B>. When dealing with an access list, because the global access list is effectively appended to each per-database list, if the resulting list is non-empty then the access list will end with an implicit <TT>access to * by * none</TT> directive. If there are no access directives applicable to a backend, then a default read is used.</P> -<P>The next example again shows the importance of ordering, both of the access directives and the <TT>by <who></TT> clauses. It also shows the use of an attribute selector to grant access to a specific attribute and various <TT><who></TT> selectors.</P> -<PRE> - olcAccess: to dn.subtree="dc=example,dc=com" attrs=homePhone - by self write - by dn.children=dc=example,dc=com" search - by peername.regex=IP=10\..+ read - olcAccess: to dn.subtree="dc=example,dc=com" - by self write - by dn.children="dc=example,dc=com" search - by anonymous auth -</PRE> -<P>This example applies to entries in the "<TT>dc=example,dc=com</TT>" subtree. To all attributes except <TT>homePhone</TT>, an entry can write to itself, entries under <TT>example.com</TT> entries can search by them, anybody else has no access (implicit <TT>by * none</TT>) excepting for authentication/authorization (which is always done anonymously). The <TT>homePhone</TT> attribute is writable by the entry, searchable by entries under <TT>example.com</TT>, readable by clients connecting from network 10, and otherwise not readable (implicit <TT>by * none</TT>). All other access is denied by the implicit <TT>access to * by * none</TT>.</P> -<P>Sometimes it is useful to permit a particular DN to add or remove itself from an attribute. For example, if you would like to create a group and allow people to add and remove only their own DN from the member attribute, you could accomplish it with an access directive like this:</P> -<PRE> - olcAccess: to attrs=member,entry - by dnattr=member selfwrite -</PRE> -<P>The dnattr <TT><who></TT> selector says that the access applies to entries listed in the <TT>member</TT> attribute. The <TT>selfwrite</TT> access selector says that such members can only add or delete their own DN from the attribute, not other values. The addition of the entry attribute is required because access to the entry is required to access any of the entry's attributes.</P> -<H3><A NAME="Access Control Ordering">8.3.6. Access Control Ordering</A></H3> -<P>Since the ordering of <TT>olcAccess</TT> directives is essential to their proper evaluation, but LDAP attributes normally do not preserve the ordering of their values, OpenLDAP uses a custom schema extension to maintain a fixed ordering of these values. This ordering is maintained by prepending a <TT>"{X}"</TT> numeric index to each value, similarly to the approach used for ordering the configuration entries. These index tags are maintained automatically by slapd and do not need to be specified when originally defining the values. For example, when you create the settings</P> -<PRE> - olcAccess: to attrs=member,entry - by dnattr=member selfwrite - olcAccess: to dn.children="dc=example,dc=com" - by * search - olcAccess: to dn.children="dc=com" - by * read -</PRE> -<P>when you read them back using slapcat or ldapsearch they will contain</P> -<PRE> - olcAccess: {0}to attrs=member,entry - by dnattr=member selfwrite - olcAccess: {1}to dn.children="dc=example,dc=com" - by * search - olcAccess: {2}to dn.children="dc=com" - by * read -</PRE> -<P>The numeric index may be used to specify a particular value to change when using ldapmodify to edit the access rules. This index can be used instead of (or in addition to) the actual access value. Using this numeric index is very helpful when multiple access rules are being managed.</P> -<P>For example, if we needed to change the second rule above to grant write access instead of search, we could try this LDIF:</P> -<PRE> - changetype: modify - delete: olcAccess - olcAccess: to dn.children="dc=example,dc=com" by * search - - - add: olcAccess - olcAccess: to dn.children="dc=example,dc=com" by * write - - -</PRE> -<P>But this example <B>will not</B> guarantee that the existing values remain in their original order, so it will most likely yield a broken security configuration. Instead, the numeric index should be used:</P> -<PRE> - changetype: modify - delete: olcAccess - olcAccess: {1} - - - add: olcAccess - olcAccess: {1}to dn.children="dc=example,dc=com" by * write - - -</PRE> -<P>This example deletes whatever rule is in value #1 of the <TT>olcAccess</TT> attribute (regardless of its value) and adds a new value that is explicitly inserted as value #1. The result will be</P> -<PRE> - olcAccess: {0}to attrs=member,entry - by dnattr=member selfwrite - olcAccess: {1}to dn.children="dc=example,dc=com" - by * write - olcAccess: {2}to dn.children="dc=com" - by * read -</PRE> -<P>which is exactly what was intended.</P> -<H2><A NAME="Access Control Common Examples">8.4. Access Control Common Examples</A></H2> -<H3><A NAME="Basic ACLs">8.4.1.

Then you have to add an actual directory entry with the same dn, e.g.:</P> -<PRE> - dn: cn=Manager,o=MyOrganization - cn: Manager - sn: Manager - objectClass: person - objectClass: top - userPassword: {SSHA}someSSHAdata -</PRE> -<P>Then binding as the <EM>rootdn</EM> will require a regular bind to that DN, which in turn requires auth access to that entry's DN and <EM>userPassword</EM>, and this can be restricted via ACLs. E.g.:</P> -<PRE> - access to dn.base="cn=Manager,o=MyOrganization" - by peername.regex=127\.0\.0\.1 auth - by peername.regex=192\.168\.0\..* auth - by users none - by * none -</PRE> -<P>The ACLs above will only allow binding using rootdn from localhost and 192.168.0.0/24.</P> -<H3><A NAME="Controlling the LDAP Proxied Authorization Control">8.4.4.

Following references</A></H3> -<P>We will now show a quite powerful example of what can be done with sets. This example tends to make OpenLDAP administrators smile after they have understood it and its implications.</P> -<P>Let's start with an user entry:</P> -<PRE> - dn: uid=john,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com - uid: john - objectClass: inetOrgPerson - givenName: John - sn: Smith - cn: john - manager: uid=mary,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com -</PRE> -<P>Writing an ACL to allow the manager to update some attributes is quite simple using sets:</P> -<PRE> - access to dn.exact="uid=john,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com" - attrs=carLicense,homePhone,mobile,pager,telephoneNumber - by self write - by set="this/manager & user" write - by * read -</PRE> -<P>In that set, <TT>this</TT> expands to the entry being accessed, so that <TT>this/manager</TT> expands to <TT>uid=mary,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com</TT> when john's entry is accessed. If the manager herself is accessing John's entry, the ACL will match and write access to those attributes will be granted.</P> -<P>So far, this same behavior can be obtained with the <TT>dnattr</TT> keyword. With sets, however, we can further enhance this ACL. Let's say we want to allow the secretary of the manager to also update these attributes. This is how we do it:</P> -<PRE> - access to dn.exact="uid=john,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com" - attrs=carLicense,homePhone,mobile,pager,telephoneNumber - by self write - by set="this/manager & user" write - by set="this/manager/secretary & user" write - by * read -</PRE> -<P>Now we need a picture to help explain what is happening here (entries shortened for clarity):</P> -<P><CENTER><IMG SRC="set-following-references.png" ALIGN="center"></CENTER></P> -<P ALIGN="Center">Figure X.Y: Sets jumping through entries</P> -<P>In this example, Jane is the secretary of Mary, which is the manager of John. This whole relationship is defined with the <TT>manager</TT> and <TT>secretary</TT> attributes, which are both of the distinguishedName syntax (i.e., full DNs). So, when the <TT>uid=john</TT> entry is being accessed, the <TT>this/manager/secretary</TT> set becomes <TT>{"uid=jane,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com"</TT>} (follow the references in the picture):</P> -<PRE> - this = [uid=john,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com] - this/manager = \ - [uid=john,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com]/manager = uid=mary,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com - this/manager/secretary = \ - [uid=mary,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com]/secretary = uid=jane,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com -</PRE> -<P>The end result is that when Jane accesses John's entry, she will be granted write access to the specified attributes. Better yet, this will happen to any entry she accesses which has Mary as the manager.</P> -<P>This is all cool and nice, but perhaps gives too much power to secretaries. Maybe we need to further restrict it. For example, let's only allow executive secretaries to have this power:</P> -<PRE> - access to dn.exact="uid=john,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com" - attrs=carLicense,homePhone,mobile,pager,telephoneNumber - by self write - by set="this/manager & user" write - by set="this/manager/secretary & - [cn=executive,ou=group,dc=example,dc=com]/member* & - user" write - by * read -</PRE> -<P>It's almost the same ACL as before, but we now also require that the connecting user be a member of the (possibly nested) <TT>cn=executive</TT> group.</P> -<P></P> -<HR> -<H1><A NAME="Limits">9. Limits</A></H1> -<H2><A NAME="Introduction">9.1. Introduction</A></H2> -<P>It is usually desirable to limit the server resources that can be consumed by each LDAP client. OpenLDAP provides two sets of limits: a size limit, which can restrict the <EM>number</EM> of entries that a client can retrieve in a single operation, and a time limit which restricts the length of time that an operation may continue. Both types of limit can be given different values depending on who initiated the operation.</P> -<H2><A NAME="Soft and Hard limits">9.2. Soft and Hard limits</A></H2> -<P>The server administrator can specify both <EM>soft limits</EM> and <EM>hard limits</EM>. Soft limits can be thought of as being the default limit value. Hard limits cannot be exceeded by ordinary LDAP users.</P> -<P>LDAP clients can specify their own size and time limits when issuing search operations. This feature has been present since the earliest version of X.500.</P> -<P>If the client specifies a limit then the lower of the requested value and the <EM>hard limit</EM> will become the limit for the operation.</P> -<P>If the client does not specify a limit then the server applies the <EM>soft limit</EM>.</P> -<P>Soft and Hard limits are often referred to together as <EM>administrative limits</EM>. Thus, if an LDAP client requests a search that would return more results than the limits allow it will get an <EM>adminLimitExceeded</EM> error. Note that the server will usually return some results even if the limit has been exceeded: this feature is useful to clients that just want to check for the existence of some entries without needing to see them all.</P> -<P>The <EM>rootdn</EM> is not subject to any limits.</P> -<H2><A NAME="Global Limits">9.3.

Database Creation and Maintenance Tools</A></H1> -<P>This section tells you how to create a slapd database from scratch, and how to do trouble shooting if you run into problems. There are two ways to create a database. First, you can create the database on-line using <TERM>LDAP</TERM>. With this method, you simply start up slapd and add entries using the LDAP client of your choice. This method is fine for relatively small databases (a few hundred or thousand entries, depending on your requirements). This method works for database types which support updates.</P> -<P>The second method of database creation is to do it off-line using special utilities provided with <EM>slapd</EM>(8). This method is best if you have many thousands of entries to create, which would take an unacceptably long time using the LDAP method, or if you want to ensure the database is not accessed while it is being created. Note that not all database types support these utilities.</P> -<H2><A NAME="Creating a database over LDAP">10.1. Creating a database over LDAP</A></H2> -<P>With this method, you use the LDAP client of your choice (e.g., the <EM>ldapadd</EM>(1)) to add entries, just like you would once the database is created. You should be sure to set the following options in the configuration file before starting <EM>slapd</EM>(8).</P> -<PRE> - suffix <dn> -</PRE> -<P>As described in the <A HREF="#General Database Directives">General Database Directives</A> section, this option defines which entries are to be held by this database. You should set this to the DN of the root of the subtree you are trying to create. For example:</P> -<PRE> - suffix "dc=example,dc=com" -</PRE> -<P>You should be sure to specify a directory where the index files should be created:</P> -<PRE> - directory <directory> -</PRE> -<P>For example:</P> -<PRE> - directory /usr/local/var/openldap-data -</PRE> -<P>You need to create this directory with appropriate permissions such that slapd can write to it.</P> -<P>You need to configure slapd so that you can connect to it as a directory user with permission to add entries. You can configure the directory to support a special <EM>super-user</EM> or <EM>root</EM> user just for this purpose. This is done through the following two options in the database definition:</P> -<PRE> - rootdn <dn> - rootpw <passwd> -</PRE> -<P>For example:</P> -<PRE> - rootdn "cn=Manager,dc=example,dc=com" - rootpw secret -</PRE> -<P>These options specify a DN and password that can be used to authenticate as the <EM>super-user</EM> entry of the database (i.e., the entry allowed to do anything). The DN and password specified here will always work, regardless of whether the entry named actually exists or has the password given. This solves the chicken-and-egg problem of how to authenticate and add entries before any entries yet exist.</P> -<P>Finally, you should make sure that the database definition contains the index definitions you want:</P> -<PRE> - index {<attrlist> | default} [pres,eq,approx,sub,none] -</PRE> -<P>For example, to index the <TT>cn</TT>, <TT>sn</TT>, <TT>uid</TT> and <TT>objectclass</TT> attributes, the following <TT>index</TT> directives could be used:</P> -<PRE> - index cn,sn,uid pres,eq,approx,sub - index objectClass eq -</PRE> -<P>This would create presence, equality, approximate, and substring indices for the <TT>cn</TT>, <TT>sn</TT>, and <TT>uid</TT> attributes and an equality index for the <TT>objectClass</TT> attribute. Note that not all index types are available with all attribute types. See <A HREF="#The slapd Configuration File">The slapd Configuration File</A> section for more information on this option.</P> -<P>Once you have configured things to your liking, start up slapd, connect with your LDAP client, and start adding entries. For example, to add an organization entry and an organizational role entry using the <I>ldapadd</I> tool, you could create an <TERM>LDIF</TERM> file called <TT>entries.ldif</TT> with the contents:</P> -<PRE> - # Organization for Example Corporation - dn: dc=example,dc=com - objectClass: dcObject - objectClass: organization - dc: example - o: Example Corporation - description: The Example Corporation - - # Organizational Role for Directory Manager - dn: cn=Manager,dc=example,dc=com - objectClass: organizationalRole - cn: Manager - description: Directory Manager -</PRE> -<P>and then use a command like this to actually create the entry:</P> -<PRE> - ldapadd -f entries.ldif -x -D "cn=Manager,dc=example,dc=com" -w secret -</PRE> -<P>The above command assumes settings provided in the above examples.</P> -<H2><A NAME="Creating a database off-line">10.2. Creating a database off-line</A></H2> -<P>The second method of database creation is to do it off-line, using the slapd database tools described below. This method is best if you have many thousands of entries to create, which would take an unacceptably long time to add using the LDAP method described above. These tools read the slapd configuration file and an input file containing a text representation of the entries to add. For database types which support the tools, they produce the database files directly (otherwise you must use the on-line method above). Also, the input file must be completely valid, as these tools do fewer consistency checks than the on-line method.</P> -<P><HR WIDTH="80%" ALIGN="Left"> -<STRONG>Note: </STRONG>this Guide is not meant to provide exhaustive documentation on the software.

If the server is unable to check the syntax (i.e., it was hashed or otherwise encoded by the client) it will return an error refusing the password (pwdCheckQuality: 2). -<LI>When a client includes the Password Policy Request control with a bind request, the server will respond with a password expiration warning if it is going to expire in ten minutes or less (pwdExpireWarning: 600). The warnings themselves are returned in a Password Policy Response control. -<LI>When the password for a DN has expired, the server will allow five additional "grace" logins (pwdGraceAuthNLimit: 5). -<LI>The server will maintain a history of the last five passwords that were used for a DN (pwdInHistory: 5). -<LI>The server will lock the account after the maximum number of failed bind attempts has been exceeded (pwdLockout: TRUE). -<LI>When the server has locked an account, the server will keep it locked until an administrator unlocks it (pwdLockoutDuration: 0) -<LI>The server will reset its failed bind count after a period of 30 seconds. -<LI>Passwords will not expire (pwdMaxAge: 0). -<LI>Passwords can be changed as often as desired (pwdMinAge: 0). -<LI>Passwords must be at least 5 characters in length (pwdMinLength: 5). -<LI>The password does not need to be changed at the first bind or when the administrator has reset the password (pwdMustChange: FALSE) -<LI>The current password does not need to be included with password change requests (pwdSafeModify: FALSE) -<LI>The server will only allow five failed binds in a row for a particular DN (pwdMaxFailure: 5).</UL> -<P>The actual policy would be:</P> -<PRE> - dn: cn=default,ou=policies,dc=example,dc=com - cn: default - objectClass: pwdPolicy - objectClass: namedPolicy - objectClass: top - pwdAllowUserChange: TRUE - pwdAttribute: userPassword - pwdCheckQuality: 2 - pwdExpireWarning: 600 - pwdFailureCountInterval: 30 - pwdGraceAuthNLimit: 5 - pwdInHistory: 5 - pwdLockout: TRUE - pwdLockoutDuration: 0 - pwdMaxAge: 0 - pwdMaxFailure: 5 - pwdMinAge: 0 - pwdMinLength: 5 - pwdMustChange: FALSE - pwdSafeModify: FALSE -</PRE> -<P>You can create additional policy objects as needed.</P> -<P>The namedPolicy object class is present because the policy entry requires a structural object class.</P> -<P>There are two ways password policy can be applied to individual objects:</P> -<P>1. The pwdPolicySubentry in a user's object - If a user's object has a pwdPolicySubEntry attribute specifying the DN of a policy object, then the policy defined by that object is applied.</P> -<P>2. Default password policy - If there is no specific pwdPolicySubentry set for an object, and the password policy module was configured with the DN of a default policy object and if that object exists, then the policy defined in that object is applied.</P> -<P>Please see <EM>slapo-ppolicy(5)</EM> for a complete explanation of its features.</P> -<P>A guiding philosophy for OpenLDAP and directory servers in general has been that they always hand back exactly what they were given, without modification. For example, if the cn attribute of an object was set to fOObaR, the server will return that exact string during a search. Values of attributes of a sensitive nature, such as userPassword, are often hashed to conceal their values. Since the userPassword values are used internally by the directory server to authenticate users, any hash algorithm that is applied to the value must be compatible with the directory server. Historically this problem has been solved by making the LDAP client application be able to hash the userPassword attribute value in a way that is compatible with the directory server, but this solution has the obvious drawback of requiring tight coupling between the LDAP client and server, and limits the choices of usable hashing algorithms to those that are accommodated by both. This is clearly a sub-optimal solution.</P> -<P>In 2001 RFC 3062 became a standard that specified an LDAP extended operation for cases like this. Extended operations are not bound by the return-what-you-are-given philosophy and so are free to do things to attribute values that the add and modify operations cannot. The change password extended operation accepts a plaintext password and hashes it based on a specification that is contained in the server. This allows the server to be in control of the hashing algorithm which, in turn, ensures that any hashes applied to userPassword attribute values will not prevent users from being authenticated.</P> -<P>The password policy module's ppolicy_hash_cleartext flag addresses this problem by intercepting LDAP modify operations that include the userPassword attribute and converting them to change password extended operations so they can be hashed according to the specification contained in slapd's configuration. When this flag is set, LDAP applications that modify the userPassword attribute can send the password in cleartext form to the server using a standard LDAP modify command and the server will hash the value according to the password-hash directive before storing it. It goes without saying that steps need to be taken to protect the cleartext password in transit, such as using SSL, TLS, or some other link encryption method.</P> -<P>The following example shows the ppolicy module configured to hash cleartext passwords:</P> -<PRE> - database mdb - suffix "dc=example,dc=com" - [...additional database configuration directives go here...] - - overlay ppolicy - ppolicy_default "cn=default,ou=policies,dc=example,dc=com" - ppolicy_hash_cleartext -</PRE> -<H3><A NAME="Further Information">12.10.3.

Overview</A></H3> -<P>This overlay can be used with a backend database such as slapd-mdb(5) to maintain the cohesiveness of a schema which utilizes reference attributes.</P> -<P>Whenever a <EM>modrdn</EM> or <EM>delete</EM> is performed, that is, when an entry's DN is renamed or an entry is removed, the server will search the directory for references to this DN (in selected attributes: see below) and update them accordingly. If it was a <EM>delete</EM> operation, the reference is deleted. If it was a <EM>modrdn</EM> operation, then the reference is updated with the new DN.</P> -<P>For example, a very common administration task is to maintain group membership lists, specially when users are removed from the directory. When an user account is deleted or renamed, all groups this user is a member of have to be updated. LDAP administrators usually have scripts for that. But we can use the <TT>refint</TT> overlay to automate this task. In this example, if the user is removed from the directory, the overlay will take care to remove the user from all the groups he/she was a member of. No more scripting for this.</P> -<H3><A NAME="Referential Integrity Configuration">12.11.2. Referential Integrity Configuration</A></H3> -<P>The configuration for this overlay is as follows:</P> -<PRE> - overlay refint - refint_attributes <attribute [attribute ...]> - refint_nothing <string> -</PRE> -<UL> -<LI><TT>refint_attributes</TT>: this parameter specifies a space separated list of attributes which will have the referential integrity maintained. When an entry is removed or has its DN renamed, the server will do an internal search for any of the <TT>refint_attributes</TT> that point to the affected DN and update them accordingly. IMPORTANT: the attributes listed here must have the <TT>distinguishedName</TT> syntax, that is, hold DNs as values. -<LI><TT>refint_nothing</TT>: some times, while trying to maintain the referential integrity, the server has to remove the last attribute of its kind from an entry. This may be prohibited by the schema: for example, the <TT>groupOfNames</TT> object class requires at least one member. In these cases, the server will add the attribute value specified in <TT>refint_nothing</TT> to the entry.</UL> -<P>To illustrate this overlay, we will use the group membership scenario.</P> -<P>In <TT>slapd.conf</TT>:</P> -<PRE> - overlay refint - refint_attributes member - refint_nothing "cn=admin,dc=example,dc=com" -</PRE> -<P>This configuration tells the overlay to maintain the referential integrity of the <TT>member</TT> attribute. This attribute is used in the <TT>groupOfNames</TT> object class which always needs a member, so we add the <TT>refint_nothing</TT> directive to fill in the group with a standard member should all the members vanish.</P> -<P>If we have the following group membership, the refint overlay will automatically remove <TT>john</TT> from the group if his entry is removed from the directory:</P> -<P><CENTER><IMG SRC="refint.png" ALIGN="center"></CENTER></P> -<P ALIGN="Center">Figure X.Y: Maintaining referential integrity in groups</P> -<P>Notice that if we rename (<TT>modrdn</TT>) the <TT>john</TT> entry to, say, <TT>jsmith</TT>, the refint overlay will also rename the reference in the <TT>member</TT> attribute, so the group membership stays correct.</P> -<P>If we removed all users from the directory who are a member of this group, then the end result would be a single member in the group: <TT>cn=admin,dc=example,dc=com</TT>. This is the <TT>refint_nothing</TT> parameter kicking into action so that the schema is not violated.</P> -<P>The <EM>rootdn</EM> must be set for the database as refint runs as the <EM>rootdn</EM> to gain access to make its updates.

Like LDAP <EM>simple</EM> authentication, such mechanisms should not be used unless you have adequate security protections in place. It is recommended that these mechanisms be used only in conjunction with <TERM>Transport Layer Security</TERM> (TLS). Use of PLAIN and LOGIN are not discussed further in this document.</P> -<P>The DIGEST-MD5 mechanism is the mandatory-to-implement authentication mechanism for LDAPv3. Though DIGEST-MD5 is not a strong authentication mechanism in comparison with trusted third party authentication systems (such as <TERM>Kerberos</TERM> or public key systems), it does offer significant protections against a number of attacks. Unlike the <TERM>CRAM-MD5</TERM> mechanism, it prevents chosen plaintext attacks. DIGEST-MD5 is favored over the use of plaintext password mechanisms. The CRAM-MD5 mechanism is deprecated in favor of DIGEST-MD5. Use of <A HREF="#DIGEST-MD5">DIGEST-MD5</A> is discussed below.</P> -<P>The GSSAPI mechanism utilizes <TERM>GSS-API</TERM> <TERM>Kerberos</TERM> V to provide secure authentication services. The KERBEROS_V4 mechanism is available for those using Kerberos IV. Kerberos is viewed as a secure, distributed authentication system suitable for both small and large enterprises. Use of <A HREF="#GSSAPI">GSSAPI</A> and <A HREF="#KERBEROS_V4">KERBEROS_V4</A> are discussed below.</P> -<P>The EXTERNAL mechanism utilizes authentication services provided by lower level network services such as <TERM>Transport Layer Security</TERM> (<TERM>TLS</TERM>).

If there were multiple sets of parentheses in the search pattern, the variables $2, $3, etc are used.</P> -<H3><A NAME="Direct Mapping">15.2.6. Direct Mapping</A></H3> -<P>Where possible, direct mapping of the authentication request DN to the user's DN is generally recommended. Aside from avoiding the expense of searching for the user's DN, it allows mapping to DNs which refer to entries not held by this server.</P> -<P>Suppose the authentication request DN is written as:</P> -<PRE> - uid=adamson,cn=example.com,cn=gssapi,cn=auth -</PRE> -<P>and the user's actual LDAP entry is:</P> -<PRE> - uid=adamson,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com -</PRE> -<P>then the following <TT>authz-regexp</TT> directive in <EM>slapd.conf</EM>(5) would provide for direct mapping.</P> -<PRE> - authz-regexp - uid=([^,]*),cn=example.com,cn=gssapi,cn=auth - uid=$1,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com -</PRE> -<P>An even more lenient rule could be written as</P> -<PRE> - authz-regexp - uid=([^,]*),cn=[^,]*,cn=auth - uid=$1,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com -</PRE> -<P>Be careful about setting the search pattern too leniently, however, since it may mistakenly allow persons to become authenticated as a DN to which they should not have access. It is better to write several strict directives than one lenient directive which has security holes. If there is only one authentication mechanism in place at your site, and zero or one realms in use, you might be able to map between authentication identities and LDAP DN's with a single <TT>authz-regexp</TT> directive.</P> -<P>Don't forget to allow for the case where the realm is omitted as well as the case with an explicitly specified realm. This may well require a separate <TT>authz-regexp</TT> directive for each case, with the explicit-realm entry being listed first.</P> -<H3><A NAME="Search-based mappings">15.2.7. Search-based mappings</A></H3> -<P>There are a number of cases where mapping to a LDAP URL may be appropriate. For instance, some sites may have person objects located in multiple areas of the LDAP tree, such as if there were an <TT>ou=accounting</TT> tree and an <TT>ou=engineering</TT> tree, with persons interspersed between them. Or, maybe the desired mapping must be based upon information in the user's information. Consider the need to map the above authentication request DN to user whose entry is as follows:</P> -<PRE> - dn: cn=Mark Adamson,ou=People,dc=Example,dc=COM - objectclass: person - cn: Mark Adamson - uid: adamson -</PRE> -<P>The information in the authentication request DN is insufficient to allow the user's DN to be directly derived, instead the user's DN must be searched for. For these situations, a replacement pattern which produces a LDAP URL can be used in the <TT>authz-regexp</TT> directives. This URL will then be used to perform an internal search of the LDAP database to find the person's authentication DN.</P> -<P>An LDAP URL, similar to other URL's, is of the form</P> -<PRE> - ldap://<host>/<base>?<attrs>?<scope>?<filter> -</PRE> -<P>This contains all of the elements necessary to perform an LDAP search: the name of the server <host>, the LDAP DN search base <base>, the LDAP attributes to retrieve <attrs>, the search scope <scope> which is one of the three options "base", "one", or "sub", and lastly an LDAP search filter <filter>. Since the search is for an LDAP DN within the current server, the <host> portion should be empty. The <attrs> field is also ignored since only the DN is of concern. These two elements are left in the format of the URL to maintain the clarity of what information goes where in the string.</P> -<P>Suppose that the person in the example from above did in fact have an authentication username of "adamson" and that information was kept in the attribute "uid" in their LDAP entry. The <TT>authz-regexp</TT> directive might be written as</P> -<PRE> - authz-regexp - uid=([^,]*),cn=example.com,cn=gssapi,cn=auth - ldap:///ou=people,dc=example,dc=com??one?(uid=$1) -</PRE> -<P>This will initiate an internal search of the LDAP database inside the slapd server. If the search returns exactly one entry, it is accepted as being the DN of the user. If there are more than one entries returned, or if there are zero entries returned, the authentication fails and the user's connection is left bound as the authentication request DN.</P> -<P>The attributes that are used in the search filter <filter> in the URL should be indexed to allow faster searching. If they are not, the authentication step alone can take uncomfortably long periods, and users may assume the server is down.</P> -<P>A more complex site might have several realms in use, each mapping to a different subtree in the directory. These can be handled with statements of the form:</P> -<PRE> - # Match Engineering realm - authz-regexp - uid=([^,]*),cn=engineering.example.com,cn=digest-md5,cn=auth - ldap:///dc=eng,dc=example,dc=com??one?(&(uid=$1)(objectClass=person)) - - # Match Accounting realm - authz-regexp - uid=([^,].*),cn=accounting.example.com,cn=digest-md5,cn=auth - ldap:///dc=accounting,dc=example,dc=com??one?(&(uid=$1)(objectClass=person)) - - # Default realm is customers.example.com - authz-regexp - uid=([^,]*),cn=digest-md5,cn=auth - ldap:///dc=customers,dc=example,dc=com??one?(&(uid=$1)(objectClass=person)) -</PRE> -<P>Note that the explicitly-named realms are handled first, to avoid the realm name becoming part of the UID. Also note the use of scope and filters to limit matching to desirable entries.</P> -<P>Note as well that <TT>authz-regexp</TT> internal search are subject to access controls. Specifically, the authentication identity must have <TT>auth</TT> access.</P> -<P>See <EM>slapd.conf</EM>(5) for more detailed information.</P> -<H2><A NAME="SASL Proxy Authorization">15.3. SASL Proxy Authorization</A></H2> -<P>The SASL offers a feature known as <EM>proxy authorization</EM>, which allows an authenticated user to request that they act on the behalf of another user. This step occurs after the user has obtained an authentication DN, and involves sending an authorization identity to the server. The server will then make a decision on whether or not to allow the authorization to occur. If it is allowed, the user's LDAP connection is switched to have a binding DN derived from the authorization identity, and the LDAP session proceeds with the access of the new authorization DN.</P> -<P>The decision to allow an authorization to proceed depends on the rules and policies of the site where LDAP is running, and thus cannot be made by SASL alone. The SASL library leaves it up to the server to make the decision. The LDAP administrator sets the guidelines of who can authorize to what identity by adding information into the LDAP database entries. By default, the authorization features are disabled, and must be explicitly configured by the LDAP administrator before use.</P> -<P>The rules governing proxy authorization are not just used for SASL: they also control the use of the LDAP Proxied Authorization Control (RFC 4370).</P> -<H3><A NAME="Uses of Proxy Authorization">15.3.1. Uses of Proxy Authorization</A></H3> -<P>This sort of service is useful when one entity needs to act on the behalf of many other users. For example, users may be directed to a web page to make changes to their personal information in their LDAP entry. The users authenticate to the web server to establish their identity, but the web server CGI cannot authenticate to the LDAP server as that user to make changes for them. Instead, the web server authenticates itself to the LDAP server as a service identity, say,</P> -<PRE> - cn=WebUpdate,dc=example,dc=com -</PRE> -<P>and then it will SASL authorize to the DN of the user. Once so authorized, the CGI makes changes to the LDAP entry of the user, and as far as the slapd server can tell for its ACLs, it is the user themself on the other end of the connection. The user could have connected to the LDAP server directly and authenticated as themself, but that would require the user to have more knowledge of LDAP clients, knowledge which the web page provides in an easier format.</P> -<P>Proxy authorization can also be used to limit access to an account that has greater access to the database. Such an account, perhaps even the root DN specified in <EM>slapd.conf</EM>(5), can have a strict list of people who can authorize to that DN. Changes to the LDAP database could then be only allowed by that DN, and in order to become that DN, users must first authenticate as one of the persons on the list. This allows for better auditing of who made changes to the LDAP database. If people were allowed to authenticate directly to the privileged account, possibly through the <TT>rootpw</TT> <EM>slapd.conf</EM>(5) directive or through a <TT>userPassword</TT> attribute, then auditing becomes more difficult.</P> -<P>Note that after a successful proxy authorization, the original authentication DN of the LDAP connection is overwritten by the new DN from the authorization request. If a service program is able to authenticate itself as its own authentication DN and then authorize to other DN's, and it is planning on switching to several different identities during one LDAP session, it will need to authenticate itself each time before authorizing to another DN (or use a different proxy authorization mechanism). The slapd server does not keep record of the service program's ability to switch to other DN's. On authentication mechanisms like Kerberos this will not require multiple connections being made to the Kerberos server, since the user's TGT and "ldap" session key are valid for multiple uses for the several hours of the ticket lifetime.</P> -<H3><A NAME="SASL Authorization Identities">15.3.2. SASL Authorization Identities</A></H3> -<P>The SASL authorization identity is sent to the LDAP server via the <TT>-X</TT> switch for <EM>ldapsearch</EM>(1) and other tools, or in the <TT>*authzid</TT> parameter to the <EM>lutil_sasl_defaults</EM>() call. The identity can be in one of two forms, either</P> -<PRE> - u:<username> -</PRE> -<P>or</P> -<PRE> - dn:<dn> -</PRE> -<P>In the first form, the <username> is from the same namespace as the authentication identities above. It is the user's username as it is referred to by the underlying authentication mechanism. Authorization identities of this form are converted into a DN format by the same function that the authentication process used, producing an <EM>authorization request DN</EM> of the form</P> -<PRE> - uid=<username>,cn=<realm>,cn=<mechanism>,cn=auth -</PRE> -<P>That authorization request DN is then run through the same <TT>authz-regexp</TT> process to convert it into a legitimate authorization DN from the database. If it cannot be converted due to a failed search from an LDAP URL, the authorization request fails with "inappropriate access". Otherwise, the DN string is now a legitimate authorization DN ready to undergo approval.</P> -<P>If the authorization identity was provided in the second form, with a <TT>"dn:"</TT> prefix, the string after the prefix is already in authorization DN form, ready to undergo approval.</P> -<H3><A NAME="Proxy Authorization Rules">15.3.3. Proxy Authorization Rules</A></H3> -<P>Once slapd has the authorization DN, the actual approval process begins. There are two attributes that the LDAP administrator can put into LDAP entries to allow authorization:</P> -<PRE> - authzTo - authzFrom -</PRE> -<P>Both can be multivalued. The <TT>authzTo</TT> attribute is a source rule, and it is placed into the entry associated with the authentication DN to tell what authorization DNs the authenticated DN is allowed to assume. The second attribute is a destination rule, and it is placed into the entry associated with the requested authorization DN to tell which authenticated DNs may assume it.</P> -<P>The choice of which authorization policy attribute to use is up to the administrator. Source rules are checked first in the person's authentication DN entry, and if none of the <TT>authzTo</TT> rules specify the authorization is permitted, the <TT>authzFrom</TT> rules in the authorization DN entry are then checked. If neither case specifies that the request be honored, the request is denied. Since the default behavior is to deny authorization requests, rules only specify that a request be allowed; there are no negative rules telling what authorizations to deny.</P> -<P>The value(s) in the two attributes are of the same form as the output of the replacement pattern of a <TT>authz-regexp</TT> directive: either a DN or an LDAP URL. For example, if a <TT>authzTo</TT> value is a DN, that DN is one the authenticated user can authorize to. On the other hand, if the <TT>authzTo</TT> value is an LDAP URL, the URL is used as an internal search of the LDAP database, and the authenticated user can become ANY DN returned by the search. If an LDAP entry looked like:</P> -<PRE> - dn: cn=WebUpdate,dc=example,dc=com - authzTo: ldap:///dc=example,dc=com??sub?(objectclass=person) -</PRE> -<P>then any user who authenticated as <TT>cn=WebUpdate,dc=example,dc=com</TT> could authorize to any other LDAP entry under the search base <TT>dc=example,dc=com</TT> which has an objectClass of <TT>Person</TT>.</P> -<H4><A NAME="Notes on Proxy Authorization Rules">15.3.3.1. Notes on Proxy Authorization Rules</A></H4> -<P>An LDAP URL in a <TT>authzTo</TT> or <TT>authzFrom</TT> attribute will return a set of DNs. Each DN returned will be checked. Searches which return a large set can cause the authorization process to take an uncomfortably long time. Also, searches should be performed on attributes that have been indexed by slapd.</P> -<P>To help produce more sweeping rules for <TT>authzFrom</TT> and <TT>authzTo</TT>, the values of these attributes are allowed to be DNs with regular expression characters in them. This means a source rule like</P> -<PRE> - authzTo: dn.regex:^uid=[^,]*,dc=example,dc=com$ -</PRE> -<P>would allow that authenticated user to authorize to any DN that matches the regular expression pattern given. This regular expression comparison can be evaluated much faster than an LDAP search for <TT>(uid=*)</TT>.</P> -<P>Also note that the values in an authorization rule must be one of the two forms: an LDAP URL or a DN (with or without regular expression characters). Anything that does not begin with "<TT>ldap://</TT>" is taken as a DN. It is not permissible to enter another authorization identity of the form "<TT>u:<username></TT>" as an authorization rule.</P> -<H4><A NAME="Policy Configuration">15.3.3.2. Policy Configuration</A></H4> -<P>The decision of which type of rules to use, <TT>authzFrom</TT> or <TT>authzTo</TT>, will depend on the site's situation. For example, if the set of people who may become a given identity can easily be written as a search filter, then a single destination rule could be written. If the set of people is not easily defined by a search filter, and the set of people is small, it may be better to write a source rule in the entries of each of those people who should be allowed to perform the proxy authorization.</P> -<P>By default, processing of proxy authorization rules is disabled. The <TT>authz-policy</TT> directive must be set in the <EM>slapd.conf</EM>(5) file to enable authorization. This directive can be set to <TT>none</TT> for no rules (the default), <TT>to</TT> for source rules, <TT>from</TT> for destination rules, or <TT>both</TT> for both source and destination rules.</P> -<P>Source rules are extremely powerful. If ordinary users have access to write the <TT>authzTo</TT> attribute in their own entries, then they can write rules that would allow them to authorize as anyone else. As such, when using source rules, the <TT>authzTo</TT> attribute should be protected with an ACL that only allows privileged users to set its values.</P> -<H4><A NAME="Access Control requirements">15.3.3.3. Access Control requirements</A></H4> -<P>When checking whether a particular DN may authorize as another DN, the server applies access control rules to the <TT>authzTo</TT> and <TT>authzFrom</TT> attributes. The <TT>auth</TT> privilege is required for an attribute to be used.</P> -<P>For example, suppose Alice has authenticated using her own ID and password, and wants to perform an LDAP operation using Bob's permissions. If authorization is granted by an <TT>authzTo</TT> attribute in Alice's entry then Alice needs the <TT>auth</TT> privilege on that attribute. Similarly, if authorization is granted by an <TT>authzFrom</TT> attribute in Bob's entry then Alice needs the <TT>auth</TT> privilege on that. Alice does not need any other access privilege to do a proxy operation.</P> -<P></P> -<HR> -<H1><A NAME="Using TLS">16.

Replication</A></H1> -<P>Replicated directories are a fundamental requirement for delivering a resilient enterprise deployment.</P> -<P><A HREF="https://www.openldap.org/">OpenLDAP</A> has various configuration options for creating a replicated directory. In previous releases, replication was discussed in terms of a <EM>master</EM> server and some number of <EM>slave</EM> servers. A master accepted directory updates from other clients, and a slave only accepted updates from a (single) master. The replication structure was rigidly defined and any particular database could only fulfill a single role, either master or slave. Another historic term introduced with OpenLDAP 2.4 was multimaster.</P> -<P>As OpenLDAP now supports a wide variety of replication topologies, these terms have been deprecated in favor of <EM>provider</EM>/<EM>multi-provider</EM> and <EM>consumer</EM>: A provider can accept external write operations and make them available for retrieval by consumers; consumers request replication updates from providers. Unlike the rigidly defined master/slave relationships, provider/consumer roles are quite fluid: replication updates received in a consumer can be further propagated by that consumer to other servers, so a consumer can also act simultaneously as a provider. Also, a consumer need not be an actual LDAP server; it may be just an LDAP client.</P> -<P>The following sections will describe the replication technology and discuss the various replication options that are available.</P> -<H2><A NAME="Replication Technology">18.1. Replication Technology</A></H2> -<H3><A NAME="LDAP Sync Replication">18.1.1. LDAP Sync Replication</A></H3> -<P>The <TERM>LDAP Sync</TERM> Replication engine, <TERM>syncrepl</TERM> for short, is a consumer-side replication engine that enables the consumer <TERM>LDAP</TERM> server to maintain a shadow copy of a <TERM>DIT</TERM> fragment. A syncrepl engine resides at the consumer and executes as one of the <EM>slapd</EM>(8) threads. It creates and maintains a replica by connecting to the replication provider to perform the initial DIT content load followed either by periodic content polling or by timely updates upon content changes.</P> -<P>Syncrepl uses the LDAP Content Synchronization protocol (or LDAP Sync for short) as the consumer synchronization protocol. LDAP Sync provides a stateful replication which supports both pull-based and push-based synchronization and does not mandate the use of a history store. In pull-based replication the consumer periodically polls the provider for updates. In push-based replication the consumer listens for updates that are sent by the provider in realtime. Since the protocol does not require a history store, the provider does not need to maintain any log of updates it has received (Note that the syncrepl engine is extensible and additional replication protocols may be supported in the future.).</P> -<P>Syncrepl keeps track of the status of the replication content by maintaining and exchanging synchronization cookies. Because the syncrepl consumer and provider maintain their content status, the consumer can poll the provider content to perform incremental synchronization by asking for the entries required to make the consumer up-to-date with the provider content. Syncrepl also enables convenient management of consumers by maintaining replication status. The consumer database can be constructed from a consumer-side or a provider-side backup at any synchronization status. Syncrepl can automatically resynchronize the consumer database to be up-to-date with the current provider content.</P> -<P>Syncrepl supports both pull-based and push-based synchronization. In its basic refreshOnly synchronization mode, the provider uses pull-based synchronization where the consumer servers need not be tracked and no history information is maintained. The information required for the provider to process periodic polling requests is contained in the synchronization cookie of the request itself. To optimize the pull-based synchronization, syncrepl utilizes the present phase of the LDAP Sync protocol as well as its delete phase, instead of falling back on frequent full reloads. To further optimize the pull-based synchronization, the provider can maintain a per-scope session log as a history store. In its refreshAndPersist mode of synchronization, the provider uses a push-based synchronization. The provider keeps track of the consumer servers that have requested a persistent search and sends them necessary updates as the provider replication content gets modified.</P> -<P>With syncrepl, a consumer can create a replication agreement without changing the provider's configurations and without restarting the provider server, if the consumer server has appropriate access privileges for the DIT fragment to be replicated. The consumer server can stop the replication also without the need for provider-side changes and restart.</P> -<P>Syncrepl supports both types of partial replication: sparse and fractional The shadow DIT fragment is defined by a general search criteria consisting of base, scope, filter, and attribute list. The consumer content is also subject to the access privileges of the bind identity of the syncrepl replication connection.</P> -<P>Fractional replication uses explicit attribute lists to replicate only a subset of the provider's attributes and sparse replication uses base/scope/filter to replicate only a subset of the provider's entries. Both cases are just refinements of the general search criteria.</P> -<H4><A NAME="The LDAP Content Synchronization Protocol">18.1.1.1. The LDAP Content Synchronization Protocol</A></H4> -<P>The LDAP Sync protocol allows a client to maintain a synchronized copy of a DIT fragment. The LDAP Sync operation is defined as a set of controls and other protocol elements which extend the LDAP search operation. This section introduces the LDAP Content Sync protocol only briefly. For more information, refer to <A HREF="https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc4533.txt">RFC4533</A>.</P> -<P>The LDAP Sync protocol supports both polling and listening for changes by defining two respective synchronization operations: <EM>refreshOnly</EM> and <EM>refreshAndPersist</EM>. Polling is implemented by the <EM>refreshOnly</EM> operation. The consumer polls the provider using an LDAP Search request with an LDAP Sync control attached. The consumer copy is synchronized to the provider copy at the time of polling using the information returned in the search. The provider finishes the search operation by returning <EM>SearchResultDone</EM> at the end of the search operation as in the normal search. Listening is implemented by the <EM>refreshAndPersist</EM> operation. As the name implies, it begins with a search, like refreshOnly. Instead of finishing the search after returning all entries currently matching the search criteria, the synchronization search remains persistent in the provider. Subsequent updates to the synchronization content in the provider cause additional entry updates to be sent to the consumer.</P> -<P>The <EM>refreshOnly</EM> operation and the refresh stage of the <EM>refreshAndPersist</EM> operation can be performed with a present phase or a delete phase.</P> -<P>In the present phase, the provider sends the consumer the entries updated within the search scope since the last synchronization. The provider sends all requested attributes, be they changed or not, of the updated entries. For each unchanged entry which remains in the scope, the provider sends a present message consisting only of the name of the entry and the synchronization control representing state present. The present message does not contain any attributes of the entry. After the consumer receives all update and present entries, it can reliably determine the new consumer copy by adding the entries added to the provider, by replacing the entries modified at the provider, and by deleting entries in the consumer copy which have not been updated nor specified as being present at the provider.</P> -<P>The transmission of the updated entries in the delete phase is the same as in the present phase. The provider sends all the requested attributes of the entries updated within the search scope since the last synchronization to the consumer. In the delete phase, however, the provider sends a delete message for each entry deleted from the search scope, instead of sending present messages. The delete message consists only of the name of the entry and the synchronization control representing state delete. The new consumer copy can be determined by adding, modifying, and removing entries according to the synchronization control attached to the <EM>SearchResultEntry</EM> message.</P> -<P>In the case that the LDAP Sync provider maintains a history store and can determine which entries are scoped out of the consumer copy since the last synchronization time, the provider can use the delete phase. If the provider does not maintain any history store, cannot determine the scoped-out entries from the history store, or the history store does not cover the outdated synchronization state of the consumer, the provider should use the present phase. The use of the present phase is much more efficient than a full content reload in terms of the synchronization traffic. To reduce the synchronization traffic further, the LDAP Sync protocol also provides several optimizations such as the transmission of the normalized <TT>entryUUID</TT>s and the transmission of multiple <TT>entryUUIDs</TT> in a single <EM>syncIdSet</EM> message.</P> -<P>At the end of the <EM>refreshOnly</EM> synchronization, the provider sends a synchronization cookie to the consumer as a state indicator of the consumer copy after the synchronization is completed. The consumer will present the received cookie when it requests the next incremental synchronization to the provider.</P> -<P>When <EM>refreshAndPersist</EM> synchronization is used, the provider sends a synchronization cookie at the end of the refresh stage by sending a Sync Info message with refreshDone=TRUE. It also sends a synchronization cookie by attaching it to <EM>SearchResultEntry</EM> messages generated in the persist stage of the synchronization search. During the persist stage, the provider can also send a Sync Info message containing the synchronization cookie at any time the provider wants to update the consumer-side state indicator.</P> -<P>In the LDAP Sync protocol, entries are uniquely identified by the <TT>entryUUID</TT> attribute value. It can function as a reliable identifier of the entry. The DN of the entry, on the other hand, can be changed over time and hence cannot be considered as the reliable identifier. The <TT>entryUUID</TT> is attached to each <EM>SearchResultEntry</EM> or <EM>SearchResultReference</EM> as a part of the synchronization control.</P> -<H4><A NAME="Syncrepl Details">18.1.1.2. Syncrepl Details</A></H4> -<P>The syncrepl engine utilizes both the <EM>refreshOnly</EM> and the <EM>refreshAndPersist</EM> operations of the LDAP Sync protocol. If a syncrepl specification is included in a database definition, <EM>slapd</EM>(8) launches a syncrepl engine as a <EM>slapd</EM>(8) thread and schedules its execution. If the <EM>refreshOnly</EM> operation is specified, the syncrepl engine will be rescheduled at the interval time after a synchronization operation is completed. If the <EM>refreshAndPersist</EM> operation is specified, the engine will remain active and process the persistent synchronization messages from the provider.</P> -<P>The syncrepl engine utilizes both the present phase and the delete phase of the refresh synchronization. It is possible to configure a session log in the provider which stores the <TT>entryUUID</TT>s of a finite number of entries deleted from a database. Multiple consumers share the same session log. The syncrepl engine uses the delete phase if the session log is present and the state of the consumer server is recent enough that no session log entries are truncated after the last synchronization of the client. The syncrepl engine uses the present phase if no session log is configured for the replication content or if the consumer is too outdated to be covered by the session log. The current design of the session log store is memory based, so the information contained in the session log is not persistent over multiple provider invocations. It is not currently supported to access the session log store by using LDAP operations. It is also not currently supported to impose access control to the session log.</P> -<P>As a further optimization, even in the case the synchronization search is not associated with any session log, no entries will be transmitted to the consumer server when there has been no update in the replication context.</P> -<P>The syncrepl engine, which is a consumer-side replication engine, can work with any backends. The LDAP Sync provider can be configured as an overlay on any backend, but works best with the <EM>back-mdb</EM> backend.</P> -<P>The LDAP Sync provider maintains a <TT>contextCSN</TT> for each database as the current synchronization state indicator of the provider content. It is the largest <TT>entryCSN</TT> in the provider context such that no transactions for an entry having smaller <TT>entryCSN</TT> value remains outstanding. The <TT>contextCSN</TT> could not just be set to the largest issued <TT>entryCSN</TT> because <TT>entryCSN</TT> is obtained before a transaction starts and transactions are not committed in the issue order.</P> -<P>The provider stores the <TT>contextCSN</TT> of a context in the <TT>contextCSN</TT> attribute of the context suffix entry. The attribute is not written to the database after every update operation though; instead it is maintained primarily in memory. At database start time the provider reads the last saved <TT>contextCSN</TT> into memory and uses the in-memory copy exclusively thereafter. By default, changes to the <TT>contextCSN</TT> as a result of database updates will not be written to the database until the server is cleanly shut down. A checkpoint facility exists to cause the <TT>contextCSN</TT> to be written out more frequently if desired.</P> -<P>Note that at startup time, if the provider is unable to read a <TT>contextCSN</TT> from the suffix entry, it will scan the entire database to determine the value, and this scan may take quite a long time on a large database. When a <TT>contextCSN</TT> value is read, the database will still be scanned for any <TT>entryCSN</TT> values greater than it, to make sure the <TT>contextCSN</TT> value truly reflects the greatest committed <TT>entryCSN</TT> in the database. On databases which support inequality indexing, setting an eq index on the <TT>entryCSN</TT> attribute and configuring <EM>contextCSN</EM> checkpoints will greatly speed up this scanning step.</P> -<P>If no <TT>contextCSN</TT> can be determined by reading and scanning the database, a new value will be generated. Also, if scanning the database yielded a greater <TT>entryCSN</TT> than was previously recorded in the suffix entry's <TT>contextCSN</TT> attribute, a checkpoint will be immediately written with the new value.</P> -<P>The consumer also stores its replication state, which is the provider's <TT>contextCSN</TT> received as a synchronization cookie, in the <TT>contextCSN</TT> attribute of the suffix entry. The replication state maintained by a consumer server is used as the synchronization state indicator when it performs subsequent incremental synchronization with the provider server. It is also used as a provider-side synchronization state indicator when it functions as a secondary provider server in a cascading replication configuration. Since the consumer and provider state information are maintained in the same location within their respective databases, any consumer can be promoted to a provider (and vice versa) without any special actions.</P> -<P>Because a general search filter can be used in the syncrepl specification, some entries in the context may be omitted from the synchronization content. The syncrepl engine creates a glue entry to fill in the holes in the consumer context if any part of the consumer content is subordinate to the holes. The glue entries will not be returned in the search result unless <EM>ManageDsaIT</EM> control is provided.</P> -<P>Also as a consequence of the search filter used in the syncrepl specification, it is possible for a modification to remove an entry from the replication scope even though the entry has not been deleted on the provider. Logically the entry must be deleted on the consumer but in <EM>refreshOnly</EM> mode the provider cannot detect and propagate this change without the use of the session log on the provider.</P> -<P>For configuration, please see the <A HREF="#Syncrepl">Syncrepl</A> section.</P> -<H2><A NAME="Deployment Alternatives">18.2. Deployment Alternatives</A></H2> -<P>While the LDAP Sync specification only defines a narrow scope for replication, the OpenLDAP implementation is extremely flexible and supports a variety of operating modes to handle other scenarios not explicitly addressed in the spec.</P> -<H3><A NAME="Delta-syncrepl replication">18.2.1. Delta-syncrepl replication</A></H3> -<UL> -<LI>Disadvantages of LDAP Sync replication:</UL> -<P>LDAP Sync replication is an object-based replication mechanism. When any attribute value in a replicated object is changed on the provider, each consumer fetches and processes the complete changed object, including <B>both the changed and unchanged attribute values</B> during replication. One advantage of this approach is that when multiple changes occur to a single object, the precise sequence of those changes need not be preserved; only the final state of the entry is significant. But this approach may have drawbacks when the usage pattern involves single changes to multiple objects.</P> -<P>For example, suppose you have a database consisting of 102,400 objects of 1 KB each. Further, suppose you routinely run a batch job to change the value of a single two-byte attribute value that appears in each of the 102,400 objects on the provider. Not counting LDAP and TCP/IP protocol overhead, each time you run this job each consumer will transfer and process <B>100 MB</B> of data to process <B>200KB of changes!</B></P> -<P>99.98% of the data that is transmitted and processed in a case like this will be redundant, since it represents values that did not change. This is a waste of valuable transmission and processing bandwidth and can cause an unacceptable replication backlog to develop. While this situation is extreme, it serves to demonstrate a very real problem that is encountered in some LDAP deployments.</P> -<UL> -<LI>Where Delta-syncrepl comes in:</UL> -<P>Delta-syncrepl, a changelog-based variant of syncrepl, is designed to address situations like the one described above. Delta-syncrepl works by maintaining a changelog of a selectable depth in a separate database on the provider. The replication consumer checks the changelog for the changes it needs and, as long as the changelog contains the needed changes, the consumer fetches the changes from the changelog and applies them to its database. If, however, a consumer is too far out of sync (or completely empty), conventional syncrepl is used to bring it up to date and replication then switches back to the delta-syncrepl mode.</P> -<P><HR WIDTH="80%" ALIGN="Left"> -<STRONG>Note: </STRONG>since the database state is stored in both the changelog DB and the main DB on the provider, it is important to backup/restore both the changelog DB and the main DB using slapcat/slapadd when restoring a DB or copying it to another machine. -<HR WIDTH="80%" ALIGN="Left"></P> -<P>For configuration, please see the <A HREF="#Delta-syncrepl">Delta-syncrepl</A> section.</P> -<H3><A NAME="N-Way Multi-Provider Replication">18.2.2.

As some monitor information may be sensitive, it is generally recommend access to cn=monitor be restricted to directory administrators and their monitoring agents. Adding an <EM>access</EM> directive immediately below the <EM>database monitor</EM> directive is a clear and effective approach for controlling access.

So obviously the benefit of this real world experience and advice should be of great value to the reader.</P> -<H2><A NAME="Performance Factors">22.1.

We will attempt to discuss these here.</P> -<H3><A NAME="Memory">22.1.1.

Directory Layout Design</A></H3> -<P>Reference to other sections and good/bad drawing here.</P> -<H3><A NAME="Expected Usage">22.1.5. Expected Usage</A></H3> -<P>Discussion.</P> -<H2><A NAME="Indexes">22.2. Indexes</A></H2> -<H3><A NAME="Understanding how a search works">22.2.1. Understanding how a search works</A></H3> -<P>If you're searching on a filter that has been indexed, then the search reads the index and pulls exactly the entries that are referenced by the index. If the filter term has not been indexed, then the search must read every single entry in the target scope and test to see if each entry matches the filter. Obviously indexing can save a lot of work when it's used correctly.</P> -<P>In back-mdb, indexes can only track a certain number of entries per key (by default that number is 2^16 = 65536). If more entries' values hash to this key, some/all of them will have to be represented by a range of candidates, making the index less useful over time as deletions cannot usually be tracked accurately.</P> -<H3><A NAME="What to index">22.2.2. What to index</A></H3> -<P>As a general rule, to make any use of indexes, you must set up an equality index on objectClass:</P> -<PRE> - index objectClass eq -</PRE> -<P>Then you should create indices to match the actual filter terms used in search queries.</P> -<PRE> - index cn,sn,givenname,mail eq -</PRE> -<P>Each attribute index can be tuned further by selecting the set of index types to generate. For example, substring and approximate search for organizations (o) may make little sense (and isn't like done very often). And searching for <EM>userPassword</EM> likely makes no sense what so ever.</P> -<P>General rule: don't go overboard with indexes. Unused indexes must be maintained and hence can only slow things down.</P> -<P>See <EM>slapd.conf</EM>(5) and <EM>slapdindex</EM>(8) for more information</P> -<H3><A NAME="Presence indexing">22.2.3. Presence indexing</A></H3> -<P>If your client application uses presence filters and if the target attribute exists on the majority of entries in your target scope, then all of those entries are going to be read anyway, because they are valid members of the result set. In a subtree where 100% of the entries are going to contain the same attributes, the presence index does absolutely NOTHING to benefit the search, because 100% of the entries match that presence filter. As an example, setting a presence index on objectClass provides no benefit since it is present on every entry.</P> -<P>So the resource cost of generating the index is a complete waste of CPU time, disk, and memory. Don't do it unless you know that it will be used, and that the attribute in question occurs very infrequently in the target data.</P> -<P>Almost no applications use presence filters in their search queries. Presence indexing is pointless when the target attribute exists on the majority of entries in the database. In most LDAP deployments, presence indexing should not be done, it's just wasted overhead.</P> -<P>See the <EM>Logging</EM> section below on what to watch out for if you have a frequently searched for attribute that is unindexed.</P> -<H3><A NAME="Equality indexing">22.2.4. Equality indexing</A></H3> -<P>Similarly to presence indexes, equality indexes are most useful if the values searched for are uncommon. Most OpenLDAP indexes work by hashing the normalised value and using the hash as the key. Hashing behaviour depends on the matching rule syntax, some matching rules also implement indexers that help speed up inequality (lower than, ...) queries.</P> -<P>Check the documentation and other parts of this guide if some indexes are mandatory - e.g. to enable replication, it is expected you index certain operational attributes, likewise if you rely on filters in ACL processing.</P> -<P>Approximate indexes are usually identical to equality indexes unless a matching rule explicitly implements it. As of OpenLDAP 2.5, only directoryStringApproxMatch and IA5StringApproxMatch matchers and indexers are implemented, currently using soundex or metaphone, with metaphone being the default.</P> -<H3><A NAME="Substring indexing">22.2.5. Substring indexing</A></H3> -<P>Substring indexes work on splitting the value into short chunks and then indexing those in a similar way to how equality index does. The storage space needed to store all of this data is analogous to the amount of data being indexed, which makes the indexes extremely heavy-handed in most scenarios.</P> -<H2><A NAME="Logging">22.3. Logging</A></H2> -<H3><A NAME="What log level to use">22.3.1. What log level to use</A></H3> -<P>The default of <EM>loglevel stats</EM> (256) is really the best bet. There's a corollary to this when problems *do* arise, don't try to trace them using syslog. Use the debug flag instead, and capture slapd's stderr output. syslog is too slow for debug tracing, and it's inherently lossy - it will throw away messages when it can't keep up. See <EM>slapd.conf</EM>(5) or <EM>slapd-config</EM>(5) for more information on how to configure the loglevel.</P> -<P>Contrary to popular belief, <EM>loglevel 0</EM> is not ideal for production as you won't be able to track when problems first arise.</P> -<H3><A NAME="What to watch out for">22.3.2. What to watch out for</A></H3> -<P>The most common message you'll see that you should pay attention to is:</P> -<PRE> - "<= mdb_equality_candidates: (foo) index_param failed (18)" -</PRE> -<P>That means that some application tried to use an equality filter (<EM>foo=<somevalue></EM>) and attribute <EM>foo</EM> does not have an equality index. If you see a lot of these messages, you should add the index. If you see one every month or so, it may be acceptable to ignore it.</P> -<P>The default syslog level is stats (256) which logs the basic parameters of each request; it usually produces 1-3 lines of output. On Solaris and systems that only provide synchronous syslog, you may want to turn it off completely, but usually you want to leave it enabled so that you'll be able to see index messages whenever they arise. On Linux you can configure syslogd to run asynchronously, in which case the performance hit for moderate syslog traffic pretty much disappears.</P> -<H3><A NAME="Improving throughput">22.3.3. Improving throughput</A></H3> -<P>You can improve logging performance on some systems by configuring syslog not to sync the file system with every write (<EM>man syslogd/syslog.conf</EM>). In Linux, you can prepend the log file name with a "-" in <EM>syslog.conf</EM>. For example, if you are using the default LOCAL4 logging you could try:</P> -<PRE> - # LDAP logs - LOCAL4.* -/var/log/ldap -</PRE> -<P>For syslog-ng, add or modify the following line in <EM>syslog-ng.conf</EM>:</P> -<PRE> - options { sync(n); }; -</PRE> -<P>where n is the number of lines which will be buffered before a write.</P> -<H2><A NAME="{{slapd}}(8) Threads">22.4. <EM>slapd</EM>(8) Threads</A></H2> -<P><EM>slapd</EM>(8) can process requests via a configurable number of threads, which in turn affects the in/out rate of connections.</P> -<P>This value should generally be a function of the number of "real" cores on the system, for example on a server with 2 CPUs with one core each, set this to 8, or 4 threads per real core. This is a "read" maximized value. The more threads that are configured per core, the slower <EM>slapd</EM>(8) responds for "read" operations. On the flip side, it appears to handle write operations faster in a heavy write/low read scenario.</P> -<P>The upper bound for good read performance appears to be 16 threads (which also happens to be the default setting).</P> -<P></P> -<HR> -<H1><A NAME="Troubleshooting">23.

First, check for typos.</P> -<P>Also note that, by default, a new directory server holds no objects (except for a few system entries). So, if you are setting up a new directory server and get this message, it may simply be that you have yet to add the object you are trying to locate.</P> -<P>The error commonly occurs because a DN was not specified and a default was not properly configured.</P> -<P>If you have a suffix specified in slapd.conf eg.</P> -<PRE> - suffix "dc=example,dc=com" -</PRE> -<P>You should use</P> -<PRE> - ldapsearch -b 'dc=example,dc=com' '(cn=jane*)' -</PRE> -<P>to tell it where to start the search.</P> -<P>The <TT>-b</TT> should be specified for all LDAP commands unless you have an <EM>ldap.conf</EM>(5) default configured.</P> -<P>See <EM>ldapsearch</EM>(1), <EM>ldapmodify</EM>(1)</P> -<P>Also, <EM>slapadd</EM>(8) and its ancillary programs are very strict about the syntax of the LDIF file.</P> -<P>Some liberties in the LDIF file may result in an apparently successful creation of the database, but accessing some parts of it may be difficult.</P> -<P>One known common error in database creation is putting a blank line before the first entry in the LDIF file. <B>There must be no leading blank lines in the LDIF file.</B></P> -<P>It is generally recommended that <EM>ldapadd</EM>(1) be used instead of <EM>slapadd</EM>(8) when adding new entries your directory. <EM>slapadd</EM>(8) should be used to bulk load entries known to be valid.</P> -<P>Another cause of this message is a referral ({SECT:Constructing a Distributed Directory Service}}) entry to an unpopulated directory.</P> -<P>Either remove the referral, or add a single record with the referral base DN to the empty directory.</P> -<P>This error may also occur when slapd is unable to access the contents of its database because of file permission problems. For instance, on a Red Hat Linux system, slapd runs as user 'ldap'.

Generic configure Instructions</A></H1> -<PRE> -Basic Installation -================== - - These are generic installation instructions. - - The `configure' shell script attempts to guess correct values for -various system-dependent variables used during compilation. It uses -those values to create a `Makefile' in each directory of the package. -It may also create one or more `.h' files containing system-dependent -definitions. Finally, it creates a shell script `config.status' that -you can run in the future to recreate the current configuration, a file -`config.cache' that saves the results of its tests to speed up -reconfiguring, and a file `config.log' containing compiler output -(useful mainly for debugging `configure'). - - If you need to do unusual things to compile the package, please try -to figure out how `configure' could check whether to do them, and mail -diffs or instructions to the address given in the `README' so they can -be considered for the next release. If at some point `config.cache' -contains results you don't want to keep, you may remove or edit it. - - The file `configure.in' is used to create `configure' by a program -called `autoconf'. You only need `configure.in' if you want to change -it or regenerate `configure' using a newer version of `autoconf'. - -The simplest way to compile this package is: - - 1. `cd' to the directory containing the package's source code and type - `./configure' to configure the package for your system. If you're - using `csh' on an old version of System V, you might need to type - `sh ./configure' instead to prevent `csh' from trying to execute - `configure' itself. - - Running `configure' takes awhile. While running, it prints some - messages telling which features it is checking for. - - 2. Type `make' to compile the package. - - 3. Optionally, type `make check' to run any self-tests that come with - the package. - - 4. Type `make install' to install the programs and any data files and - documentation. - - 5. You can remove the program binaries and object files from the - source code directory by typing `make clean'. To also remove the - files that `configure' created (so you can compile the package for - a different kind of computer), type `make distclean'. There is - also a `make maintainer-clean' target, but that is intended mainly - for the package's developers. If you use it, you may have to get - all sorts of other programs in order to regenerate files that came - with the distribution. - -Compilers and Options -===================== - - Some systems require unusual options for compilation or linking that -the `configure' script does not know about. You can give `configure' -initial values for variables by setting them in the environment. Using -a Bourne-compatible shell, you can do that on the command line like -this: - CC=c89 CFLAGS=-O2 LIBS=-lposix ./configure - -Or on systems that have the `env' program, you can do it like this: - env CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include LDFLAGS=-s ./configure - -Compiling For Multiple Architectures -==================================== - - You can compile the package for more than one kind of computer at the -same time, by placing the object files for each architecture in their -own directory. To do this, you must use a version of `make' that -supports the `VPATH' variable, such as GNU `make'. `cd' to the -directory where you want the object files and executables to go and run -the `configure' script. `configure' automatically checks for the -source code in the directory that `configure' is in and in `..'. - - If you have to use a `make' that does not supports the `VPATH' -variable, you have to compile the package for one architecture at a time -in the source code directory. After you have installed the package for -one architecture, use `make distclean' before reconfiguring for another -architecture. - -Installation Names -================== - - By default, `make install' will install the package's files in -`/usr/local/bin', `/usr/local/man', etc. You can specify an -installation prefix other than `/usr/local' by giving `configure' the -option `--prefix=PATH'. - - You can specify separate installation prefixes for -architecture-specific files and architecture-independent files. If you -give `configure' the option `--exec-prefix=PATH', the package will use -PATH as the prefix for installing programs and libraries. -Documentation and other data files will still use the regular prefix. - - In addition, if you use an unusual directory layout you can give -options like `--bindir=PATH' to specify different values for particular -kinds of files. Run `configure --help' for a list of the directories -you can set and what kinds of files go in them. - - If the package supports it, you can cause programs to be installed -with an extra prefix or suffix on their names by giving `configure' the -option `--program-prefix=PREFIX' or `--program-suffix=SUFFIX'. - -Optional Features -================= - - Some packages pay attention to `--enable-FEATURE' options to -`configure', where FEATURE indicates an optional part of the package. -They may also pay attention to `--with-PACKAGE' options, where PACKAGE -is something like `gnu-as' or `x' (for the X Window System). The -`README' should mention any `--enable-' and `--with-' options that the -package recognizes. - - For packages that use the X Window System, `configure' can usually -find the X include and library files automatically, but if it doesn't, -you can use the `configure' options `--x-includes=DIR' and -`--x-libraries=DIR' to specify their locations. - -Specifying the System Type -========================== - - There may be some features `configure' can not figure out -automatically, but needs to determine by the type of host the package -will run on. Usually `configure' can figure that out, but if it prints -a message saying it can not guess the host type, give it the -`--host=TYPE' option. TYPE can either be a short name for the system -type, such as `sun4', or a canonical name with three fields: - CPU-COMPANY-SYSTEM - -See the file `config.sub' for the possible values of each field. If -`config.sub' isn't included in this package, then this package doesn't -need to know the host type. - - If you are building compiler tools for cross-compiling, you can also -use the `--target=TYPE' option to select the type of system they will -produce code for and the `--build=TYPE' option to select the type of -system on which you are compiling the package. - -Sharing Defaults -================ - - If you want to set default values for `configure' scripts to share, -you can create a site shell script called `config.site' that gives -default values for variables like `CC', `cache_file', and `prefix'. -`configure' looks for `PREFIX/share/config.site' if it exists, then -`PREFIX/etc/config.site' if it exists. Or, you can set the -`CONFIG_SITE' environment variable to the location of the site script. -A warning: not all `configure' scripts look for a site script. - -Operation Controls -================== - - `configure' recognizes the following options to control how it -operates. - -`--cache-file=FILE' - Use and save the results of the tests in FILE instead of - `./config.cache'. Set FILE to `/dev/null' to disable caching, for - debugging `configure'. - -`--help' - Print a summary of the options to `configure', and exit. - -`--quiet' -`--silent' -`-q' - Do not print messages saying which checks are being made. To - suppress all normal output, redirect it to `/dev/null' (any error - messages will still be shown). - -`--srcdir=DIR' - Look for the package's source code in directory DIR. Usually - `configure' can determine that directory automatically. - -`--version' - Print the version of Autoconf used to generate the `configure' - script, and exit. - -`configure' also accepts some other, not widely useful, options. - -</PRE> -<P></P> -<HR> -<H1><A NAME="OpenLDAP Software Copyright Notices">K.
