yes, but acctually not exactly as you tried. the problem is, that slurpd
isn't able to handle more than one replogfile/replogfile-entry. what i do
is, create one "slapd.conf" (call them "slurpd.conf.<subtreename>" or
whatever) for each slurpd, where each of them contains only one of the
"replogfile" entries. and then start slurpd with -f option and one of the
"slurpd.conf"-files.
works for me. :o)
