slapd-passwd - /etc/passwd backend to slapd
ETCDIR/slapd.conf
The PASSWD backend to slapd(8) serves up the user account information
listed in the system passwd(5) file. This backend is provided for
demonstration purposes only. The DN of each entry is
"uid=<username>,<suffix>". Note that non-base searches scan the
entire passwd file, and are best suited for hosts with small passwd
files.
This slapd.conf option applies to the PASSWD backend database. That
is, it must follow a "database passwd" line and come before any
subsequent "backend" or "database" lines. Other database options are
described in the slapd.conf(5) manual page.
file <filename>
Specifies an alternate passwd file to use. The default is
/etc/passwd.
The passwd backend does not honor any of the access control semantics
described in slapd.access(5). Only read (=r) access to the entry
pseudo-attribute and to the other attribute values of the entries
returned by the search operation is honored, which is performed by
the frontend.
