Specify Keytab Location for Slapd

Question

I need help. How can I set up the ldap keytab location path in order that slapd uses it instead of the system /etc/krb5.keytab?

I can't find the configuration in documentation.

Thank you so much.

This is usually done in the init configuration as an environmental variable. For instance in CentOS7:

$ grep KRB5_KTNAME /etc/sysconfig/slapd
KRB5_KTNAME="FILE:/etc/openldap/ldap.keytab"

In a debian derived systems it's likely that this will instead be in /etc/defaults/ rather than /etc/sysconfig/.
