olcGlobal vs. olcFrontendConfig



HI!

I have to admit that when writing a static slapd.conf I do not make any distinction
regarding global config section and frontend config section.

So I wonder which criteria are applied to determine whether a parameter is put into
cn=config (olcGlobal) or olcDatabase={-1}frontend (olcFrontendConfig) when converting
slapd.conf to dynamic config.

Looking at a concrete configuration it does not make sense to me to put attribute
olcPasswordHash into olcDatabase={-1}frontend while putting
olcPasswordCryptSaltFormat into cn=config. There could even be conflicting values in both
entries.

Background: I'd like to determine which password hash scheme and salt format is
configured by searching in back-config.

Ciao, Michael.
