The LDAP base is the distinguished name of the LDAP tree in which user information is stored. All lookup requests sent to the LDAP server will be limited to the search base and scope specified by the ldap.base option value, unless further restricted by a more specific base and scope lookup value, such as ldap.base.passwd, ldap.base.group, or ldap.base.netgroup.
