NAME
       slapo-dyngroup - Dynamic Group overlay to slapd

SYNOPSIS
       /etc/openldap/slapd.conf

DESCRIPTION
       The  Dynamic  Group overlay allows clients to use LDAP Compare operations to test the membership of a
       dynamic group the same way they would check against a static group. Compare  operations  targeting  a
       group's static member attribute will be intercepted and tested against the configured dynamic group's
       URL attribute.

       Note that this intercept only happens if the actual Compare operation does  not  return  a  LDAP_COM-PARE_TRUE LDAP_COMPARE_TRUE
       PARE_TRUE  result.  So if a group has both static and dynamic members, the static member list will be
       checked first.

CONFIGURATION
       This slapd.conf option applies to the Dynamic Group overlay.  It  should  appear  after  the  overlay
       directive.

       attrpair <memberAttr> <URLattr>
              Specify  the  attributes  to be compared. A compare operation on the memberAttr will cause the
              URLattr to be evaluated for the result.

EXAMPLES
         database bdb
         ...
         overlay dyngroup
         attrpair member memberURL
