or "proxy anonymous". "proxy" means use the configured
proxy user. "anonymous" means use anonymous access.
"proxy anonymous" means use the configured proxy user
and if that fails, bind anonymously. If this attribute has no
value, "anonymous" is the default.
defaultSearchBase
is the base DN where clients can find name service
information, for example ou=hpusers,o=hp.com. This
attribute must have a value.
defaultServerList
is a list of one or more host IP addresses and optional port
numbers where LDAP directory servers are running. Each
host is searched in the order given. The LDAP-UX client
searches the servers until it finds one that responds,
defaultServerList is used only if the preferedServerList
attribute has no value, or if none of the specified servers in
preferredServerList responds the client request. If neither
defaultServerList nor preferredServerList specifies a host,
the LDAP-UX client does not try to connect to any LDAP
directory server. See preferredServerList below.
For example, 15.10.120.150:300 is the host at IP address
15.10.120.150 using port number 300. When specifying
multiple hosts, each host:port entry must be separated by a
space.
followReferrals
specifies whether or not referrals should be followed. If the
entry is 0 (zero) or FALSE, referrals will not be followed. If
the attribute has no value, any other numeric value, or TRUE
referrals will be followed.
preferredServerList
is a list of one or more host IP addresses and optional port
numbers where LDAP directory servers are running. Each
host is searched in the order given. If this attribute has no
value, or if none of the specified servers satisfies the client's
request, the defaultServerList is used. See defaultServerList
for more information.
For example, 15.13.128.145:250 is the host at IP address
15.13.128.145 using port number 250. When specifying
multiple hosts, each host:port entry must be separated by a
space.
profileTTL
is the recommended time interval before refreshing the
cached configuration profile.
searchTimeLimit
is how long, in seconds, a client should wait for directory
searches before aborting. 0 (zero) means no time limit. If this
attribute has no value, the default is no time limit.
serviceSearchDescriptor
is one to three custom search descriptors for each service.
The format is Service:BaseDN?Scope?(Filter) where
Service is one of the supported services passwd, group,
shadow, or pam. BaseDN is the base DN at which to start
searches. Scope is the search scope and can be one of the
following: one, base, sub. Filter is an LDAP search filter,
typically the object class. Each service can have up to three
custom search descriptors.
For example, the following defines a search descriptor for
the passwd service specifying a baseDN of
ou=people,ou=unix,o=hp.com, a search scope of sub,
and a search filter of the posixAccount object class.
passwd:ou=people,ou=unix,o=hp.com?sub?(objectclass=posixAccount)
