OpenLDAP Faq-O-Matic : OpenLDAP Software FAQ : Configuration : SLAPD Configuration : What should default referral be set to? | |
If you server holds the root of your directory information
tree, you likely should set the default referral to a
server with global knowledge OR leave it unset.
If you're using Internet style naming (ie: "dc=example,dc=com"), you might set as your default referral the OpenLDAP LDAP Root Service ("ldap://root.openldap.org:389").
If you are using X.500 style naming (ie: "o=Example Company,c=XX"),
you likely should set your default referral to a server holding
"c=XX".
