H1: The Big Picture - Configuration Choices
This section gives a brief overview of various {{TERM:LDAP}} directory
configurations, and how your stand-alone LDAP server {{slapd}}(8)
configurations, and how your Standalone LDAP Daemon {{slapd}}(8)

H2: How does LDAP work?
LDAP directory service is based on a {{client-server}} model. One
or more LDAP servers contain the data making up the directory
information tree (DIT). The client connects to servers and
asks it a question. The server responds with an answer and/or
with a pointer to where the client can get additional information
(typically, another LDAP server). No matter which LDAP server a
client connects to, it sees the same view of the directory; a name
presented to one LDAP server references the same entry it would at
another LDAP server. This is an important feature of a global
directory service, like LDAP.
