Embedding Other LDAP Server in OpenLDAP for User Authentification [Virus checked]

[ems@Sparkassen-Informatik.de]

Hello,

I've a tricky problem to solve. We are working
with OpenLDAP 2.2.30. To improve the end user comfort we like to configure
a special behavior of our LDAP.

The authentification-request which our LDAP
gets should first forwarded to an other LDAP server
(primary LDAP). Just if the authentification failed on the primary
LDAP server our LDAP should try to
authentificate by himself.

Background: The primary
LDAP server is very inflexible. We
just can use it for user authentification. For authorization we have to
use our good old own LDAP ;-)

Has anyone a clue how I've to configure our
OpenLDAP ?

Every hint is welcome.

Thanks in advance,

Klaus
