Ok, thanx, I do understand that, but my point is, where I can put
those "" in configuration files ? On a client side set BASE "" and in
slapd.conf

database        bdb
suffix          ""
rootdn          "cn=admin"

?

How persisly set config files (client, server) to search for all of
those domains You listed.
