Creating and Maintaining Database Links
110
Netscape Directory Server Administrator’s Guide • August 2002
Database Link Configuration Example
Suppose you have a server within the
us.example.com
domain that contains the
subtree
l=Walla Walla,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com
on a database and that
you want to chain operation requests for
l=Zanzibar,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com
to a different server in the
africa.example.com
domain. This operation is illustrated in the following
diagram:
nsMultiplexorCredentials
Password for the administrative user, given in plain text. If no
password is provided, it means that users can bind as anonymous.
The password is encrypted in the configuration file.
nsCheckLocalACI
Reserved for advanced use only. Controls whether ACIs are
evaluated on the database link as well as the remote data server.
Takes the values
on
or
off
.
Changes to this attribute occur only after the server has been
restarted. The default value is
off
.
nsProxiedAuthorization
Reserved for advanced use only. Allows you to disable proxied
authorization. A value of
off
means proxied authorization is
disabled. The default value is
on
.
*nsActiveChainingComponents
Lists the components using chaining. A component is any functional
unit in the server. The value of this attribute in the database link
instance overrides the value in the global configuration attribute. To
disable chaining on a particular database instance, use the value
none
.
The default policy is to not allow chaining. Refer to “Chaining
Component Operations,” on page 97 for more information.
nsReferralOnScopedSearch
Controls whether or not referrals are returned by scoped searches.
This attribute is for optimizing your directory, because returning
referrals in response to scoped searches is more efficient. Takes the
values
on
or
off
. The default value is
off
.
nsHopLimit
Maximum number of times a request can be forwarded from one
database link to another. The default value is
10
.
