+.SH NAME
slapd.conf \- configuration file for slapd, the stand-alone LDAP daemon
.SH SYNOPSIS
ETCDIR/slapd.conf
only exist in some of these databases. In general, all of the glued
databases should be configured as similarly as possible, since the intent
is to provide the appearance of a single directory.
+
+Note that the \fIsubordinate\fP functionality is implemented internally
+by the \fIglue\fP overlay and as such its behavior will interact with other
+overlays in use. By default, the glue overlay is automatically configured as
+the last overlay on the superior backend. Its position on the backend
+can be explicitly configured by setting an \fBoverlay glue\fP directive
+at the desired position. This explicit configuration is necessary e.g.
+when using the \fIsyncprov\fP overlay, which needs to follow \fIglue\fP
+in order to work over all of the glued databases. E.g.
+.RS
+.nf
+ database bdb
+ suffix dc=example,dc=com
+ ...
+ overlay glue
+ overlay syncprov

The weighted sort is always performed in ascending order, but may be combined
with the other methods for values that all have equal weights. The weight
-is specified by prepending an integer weight
-.B {<weight>}
+is specified by prepending an integer weight {<\fIweight\fP>}
in front of each value of the attribute for which weighted sorting is
desired. This weighting factor is stripped off and never returned in
search results.
.SH CONFIGURATION
These
-.B slapd.conf

options apply to the Value Sorting overlay.
They should appear after the
