## Appendix C. Recommended OpenLDAP settings

Some basic hints to configure the OpenLDAP server:

Size limit: OpenLDAP allows by default 500 return values per search, if you have more users/groups/hosts change this in slapd.conf: e.g. "sizelimit 10000" or "sizelimit -1" for unlimited return values.

Indices: Indices will improve the performance when searching for entries in the LDAP directory. The following indices are recommended:

index objectClass eq
index default sub
index uidNumber eq
index gidNumber eq
index memberUid eq
index cn,sn,uid,displayName pres,sub,eq
# Samba 3.x
index sambaSID eq
index sambaPrimaryGroupSID eq
index sambaDomainName eq
