Yes, the whole of it. As I understand, it is read on initial startup and restarts only,
and though I'm not familiar with ldap typical performance, it seems to me
that it would be adequate.
Hmm. When a our typical machine starts up, it is about five hundred exims starting in
strict sequence. After that they are typically restarted about once a week.
Will a LDAP server on a dedicated to it machine cope with that?
