NAME
ldapclientd.conf - configuration file for the LDAP client daemon process
SYNOPSIS
/etc/opt/ldapux/ldapclientd.conf
DESCRIPTION
ldapclientd.conf
is the configuration file for /opt/ldapux/bin/ldapclientd
, an LDAP
client daemon process that enables LDAP-UX clients to work with Directory Servers.
ldapclientd
caches entries, supports multiple domains in the Windows 2000/2003 Active Directory Server (ADS),
automatically downloads the configuration profiles, supports X.500 group membership, maintains and
reuses connections to the LDAP Directory Server, and manages remote LP printers.
ldapclientd uses default values for any settings absent from the configuration file.
If an older version of ldapclientd.conf
exists during installation of LDAP-UX, LDAP-UX stores the
new configuration file in
/opt/ldapux/newconfig/etc/opt/ldapux/ldapclientd.conf
and continues to use the old /etc/opt/ldapux/ldapclientd.conf
configuration file.
