ldap attributes - performance problem?

["Radim Roska" <radim.roska@gmail.com>]

Hi,

I'm thinking about solution to following problem: authorization to directories on our file server (accessed by webdav). Is it a performance issue to build solution on following pattern?

part of user's ldif
...
uid=someone
allow_dir: directory1
allow_dir: directory2
allow_dir: directory3
allow_dir: directory4

and then just htaccess directives in apache for every of these directories :)


it could happen that someone would have e.g. 50 of these attributes...would it be a problem?

Thanks for advice and advanced opinion :)
