PTA Plug-in Syntax
516
Red Hat Directory Server Administrator’s Guide • May 2005
The variable components of the PTA plug-in syntax are described in Table 16-1.
The optional parameters are described in the following table in the order in which
they appear in the syntax.
NOTE
• The LDAP URL (
ldap|ldaps://
authDS
/
subtree
) must be
separated from the optional parameters (
maxconns
,
maxops
,
timeout
,
ldver
,
connlifetime
) by a single space.
• If you explicitly define any of the optional parameters, you
must define all of them, even if you specify only the default
values.
• You can specify several authenticating directories or subtrees
by incrementing the
nsslapd-pluginarg
attribute suffix by 1
each time. This is illustrated in “Specifying Multiple
Authenticating Directory Servers,” on page 524.
Table 16-1
PTA Plug-in Parameters
Variable
Definition
state
Defines whether the plug-in is enabled or disabled. Acceptable values are
on
or
off
. See “Turning the Plug-in On or Off,” on page 518, for more information.
extension
File extension for the plug-in. The extension is always
.sl
on HP-UX PA RISC
and
.so
on all other UNIX platforms.
ldap|ldaps
Defines whether SSL is used for communication between the two Directory
Servers. See “Configuring the Servers to Use a Secure Connection,” on page 519,
for more information.
authDS
The authenticating directory hostname. You can specify the port number of the
directory server by adding a colon and then the port number. For example:
ldap://dirserver.example.com:390/
If you do not specify the port number, the PTA server attempts to connect using:
• Port 389 if
ldap://
is specified in the URL.
• Port 636 if
ldaps://
is specified in the URL.
See “Specifying the Authenticating Directory Server,” on page 520, for more
information.
