Of course.
:-) 

  

    
But i think it should not belong to root instead of ldap.
    

  

  

Yes: chown ldap.ldap /var/lib/ldap/*

  



My OpenLDAP database would often change. So i have to run the command
slapindex daily.

Or anyother ideas ? I am not clearly now. 

Thanks



  

  

    
So i try to run this command with the user ldap. But i found that ldap 
even could not login in gentoo default setting.
    

  

  

Normal.  The ldap user does not have and does not need a shell.

  



Oh. i see.



  

  

    
What's the correct user i should use when run the command "slapindex" or 
is there anything else i have lost?
    

  

  

You simply need to fix the permissions on the files before starting the
DSA.

  



Maybe i could not got your mean. :-(
