But as your example shows an entry for the cn=config database, it is most likely that you will find an appropriate entry in etc/openldap/slapd.d/cn=config/ > What do these attibutes mean, how are they applicable and why would I want to > index them?

Can you give me an example? > index objectClass eq You may search entries in your database either by presenting a equality string, i.e. "cn=Babs Jensen" or you may present a subsring only i.e. "cn=Babs J*" In order to speed up searches, special databases of indexed attributes are created. You will probably find a objectclass.bdb and cn.bdb file in yyour database directory. > Why does one define this: > dn: cn="example" > and later in the same entry define this: > cn=example Don't know what documentation you are reffering to. > Can one preface non-Standard Track names with numbers or number/letter > combinations?
