NAME

       slapo-dyngroup - Dynamic Group overlay to slapd

SYNOPSIS

       /etc/ldap/slapd.conf

DESCRIPTION

       The Dynamic Group overlay allows clients to use LDAP Compare operations
       to test the membership of a dynamic group the same way they would check
       against  a  static group. Compare operations targeting a group's static
       member attribute will be intercepted and tested against the  configured
       dynamic group's URL attribute.

       Note  that  this intercept only happens if the actual Compare operation
       does not return a LDAP_COMPARE_TRUE result. So  if  a  group  has  both
       static  and  dynamic  members,  the  static member list will be checked
       first.

CONFIGURATION

       This slapd.conf option applies to the Dynamic Group overlay.  It should
       appear after the overlay directive.

       attrpair <memberAttr> <URLattr>
              Specify  the  attributes  to be compared. A compare operation on
              the memberAttr will cause the URLattr to be  evaluated  for  the
              result.

EXAMPLES

         database bdb
         ...
         overlay dyngroup
         attrpair member memberURL
