Available only from the server console. This attribute indicates the encryption
method used for the root password.
nsslapd-schemacheck (Schema Checking)
Specifies whether the database schema will be enforced during entry insertion or
modification. When this attribute has a value of on, Directory Server will not check
the schema of existing entries until they are modified.The database schema defines
the type of information allowed in the database. You can extend the default schema
using the
objectclasses
and attribute types. For information on how to extend
your schema using the Directory Server Console, see Chapter 9, “Extending the
Directory Schema” in the Netscape Directory Server Administrator’s Guide.

NOTE
Schema checking works by default when database modifications
are made using an LDAP client, such as
ldapmodify
, the Directory
Server Gateway, or when importing a database from LDIF using
ldif2db
. If you turn schema checking off, you will have to verify
manually that your entries conform to the schema. If schema
checking is turned on, the server sends an error message to inform
you of the entries which do not match the schema. Make sure that
the attributes and object classes you create in your LDIF statements
are both spelled correctly and identified in
dse.ldif.
You will
need to create a file in LDIF format in the schema directory or add
the elements to
99user.ldif
.
