(In this example, each of the optional parameters is set to its default value.) Make sure there

is a space between the subtree parameter, and the optional parameters.

4. PTA Plug-in Syntax Examples

This section contains the following examples of PTA Plug-in syntax in the dse.ldif file:

• Section 4.1, “Specifying One Authenticating Directory Server and One Subtree”

• Section 4.2, “Specifying Multiple Authenticating Directory Servers”

• Section 4.3, “Specifying One Authenticating Directory Server and Multiple Subtrees”

• Section 4.4, “Using Non-Default Parameter Values”

• Section 4.5, “Specifying Different Optional Parameters and Subtrees for Different

Authenticating Directory Servers”

4.1. Specifying One Authenticating Directory Server and One

Subtree

This example configures the PTA Plug-in to accept all defaults for the optional variables. This

configuration causes the PTA Directory Server to connect to the authenticating Directory Server

for all bind requests to the o=NetscapeRoot subtree. The hostname of the authenticating

Directory Server is configdir.example.com.
