I haven't seen anyone put the query itself into ldap_default_servers (but I haven't seen all working Exim configurations. >From the (4.6.1 spec--the one I have handy on my desktop machine): ldap_default_servers: This option provides a list of LDAP servers which are tried in turn when an LDAP query does not contain a server. See section 9.14 for details of LDAP queries. This option is available only when Exim has been built with LDAP support. No mention of a query going in there. We haven't had a need to have expansion of this option. That doesn't mean there is no need of it. --John -- ## List details at http://www.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://www.exim.org/eximwiki/
