DIRECTORY SERVICES

Full-text indexing directories served by the LDAP service
The LDAP services uses hidden views in a IBM® Lotus® Domino® Directory or Extended Directory Catalog to search for entries when LDAP users specify names or mail addresses in a search filters. When LDAP users specify other attributes as search criteria, the LDAP service searches the full-text index, if one is created. If your LDAP users search on attributes other than names or mail addresses, create a full-text index for the directories the LDAP service serves to improve the speed of these types of searches.

Note The LDAP service always searches the full-text index to find information in a condensed Directory Catalog set up on the server.

You can configure the LDAP service so that the Indexer creates full-text indexes automatically on the Domino Directories the LDAP service servers. To enable or disable automatic creation of a full-text indexes on the Domino Directories and Extended Directory Catalogs the LDAP service serves:
