CAUTION

The nsMultiplexorBindDN cannot be that of the Directory Manager.

Use ldapmodify to provide a user password for the database link in the

nsMultiplexorCredentials attribute of the cn=database_link, cn=chaining

database,cn=plugins,cn=config entry.

For example, a client application sends a request to server A. Server A contains a database link

that chains the request to a database on server B.

The database link on server A binds to server B using a special user as defined in the

nsMultiplexorBindDN attribute and a user password as defined in the

nsMultiplexorCredentials attribute. In this example, server A uses the following bind

credentials:

nsMultiplexorBindDN: cn=proxy admin,cn=config

nsMultiplexorCredentials: secret
