Is there some way > to add this configuration? 1) check if those rpms provided the relay database as a runtime loadable module (something called back_relay.la placed somewhere by the rpm itslef), either in the main rpm or in a dedicated one 2) look for some other packager that builds rpms with back-relay support. 3) get rid of rpms and build it yourself. 4) a less performing alternative consists in using an instance of back-ldap pointing to the server itself, instead of back-relay p.
