Yes, it does.  That's why you'll find most LDAP-using applications have
a `LDAP server' configuration knob (among other LDAP knobs).

If you want one file, you can symlink/hard link them.  But if we don't
use different names, there would be no way to separate the system
nss_ldap configuration from, say, the default configuration of the
OpenLDAP command line tools.

Right.  Cheers,
