pseudorootdn, as discussed in the manpage, is the identity that will be used, for each remote server, when the client bound as the rootdn of the proxy: client meta remote1 remote2 remote3 ... anonymous anon anon anon anon user (@remote1) user user anon anon meta rootdn rootdn pseudoroot1 pseudoroot2 pseudoroot3 It cannot be used to turn anonymous requests into authenticated ones. Back-ldap has more sophisticated identity mapping capabilities, which, under some circumstances, may allow to turn anonymous into auth'd requests, but this is not very well documented, as it is considered bad practice. p.
