Red Hat Directory Server 8.0 Configuration, Command, and File Reference

Parameter Description

Valid Values on | off

Default Value on

Syntax DirectoryString

Example nsslapd-lastmod: on

WARNING

This attribute should never be turned off. If the nsslapd-lastmod is set to off,

then generating nsUniqueIDs is also disabled, replication does not work, and

other issues may arise.

If for some reason this attribute were set to off, the solution is to export the

database to ldif (db2ldif or db2ldif.pl or from the console), set the value to

on, and import the data. The import process assigns each entry a unique id.

3.1.62. nsslapd-listenhost (Listen to IP Address)

This attribute allows multiple Directory Server instances to run on a multihomed machine (or

makes it possible to limit listening to one interface of a multihomed machine). There can be

multiple IP addresses associated with a single hostname, and these IP addresses can be a mix

of both IPv4 and IPv6. This parameter can be used to restrict the Directory Server instance to a

single IP interface.

If a hostname is given as the nsslapd-listenhost value, then the Directory Server responds

to requests for every interface associated with the hostname. If a single IP interface (either IPv4

or IPv6) is given as the nsslapd-listenhost value, Directory Server only responds to requests

sent to that specific interface. Either an IPv4 or IPv6 address can be used.

The server has to be restarted for changes to this attribute to go into effect.

Parameter Description
