.SH NAME
|
|
slapd\-dnssrv \- DNS SRV referral backend to slapd
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
/etc/openldap/slapd.conf
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
The DNSSRV backend to
|
|
.BR slapd (8)
|
|
serves up referrals based upon SRV resource records held in
|
|
the Domain Name System.
|
|
.LP
|
|
This backend is experimental.
|
|
.SH CONFIGURATION
|
|
The DNSSRV backend has no backend nor database specific options.
|
|
It is configured simply by "database dnssrv" followed a suffix
|
|
directive, e.g. suffix "".
|
|
.SH ACCESS CONTROL
|
|
The
|
|
.B dnssrv
|
|
backend does not honor all ACL semantics as described in
|
|
.BR slapd.access (5).
|
|
In fact, this backend only implements the
|
|
.B search
|
|
operation when the
|
|
.B manageDSAit
|
|
control (RFC 3296) is used, otherwise for every operation a referral,
|
|
whenever appropriate, or an error is returned.
|
|
Currently, there is no means to condition the returning of the referral
|
|
by means of ACLs; no access control is implemented, except for
|
|
.B read (=r)
|
|
access to the returned entries, which is actually provided by the frontend.
|
|
Note, however, that the information returned by this backend is collected
|
|
through the DNS, so it is public by definition.
