Why not just look at the -h option to slapd; this lets you listen on multiple LDAP URIs, each potentially on different interfaces or ports. For example: slapd -h 'ldap://localhost:389/ ldap://0.0.0.0:1389/ ldap://10.1.2.3:2389/' If you need different ports to behave with different logical trees, consider just running three slapd processes, each with their own pidfile, database dirs, config files, etc. Worst case you can probably use back-ldap, which is already the most featureful LDAP proxy available. For custom error codes, see man slapo-retcode for information on retcode overlay. Emily Backes Symas - The LDAP Guys [email protected]
