OpenLDAP configuration files are installed into the
/etc/openldap/ directory. The following is a brief
list highlighting the most important directories and files:
/etc/openldap/ldap.conf — This is the
configuration file for all client applications
which use the OpenLDAP libraries such as
ldapsearch, ldapadd, Sendmail,
Pine, Balsa,
Evolution, and Gnome
Meeting.
/etc/openldap/schema/ directory — This subdirectory
contains the schema used by the slapd daemon. See
Section 13.5 The /etc/openldap/schema/ Directory for more information about
this directory.
Note
If the nss_ldap package is installed, it will
create a file named /etc/ldap.conf. This file is
used by the PAM and NSS modules supplied by the
nss_ldap package. See Section 13.7 Configuring Your System to Authenticate Using OpenLDAP for more
information about this configuration file.
