slapadd/ldapadd command?

[Sonika Malhotra <sonikam@magnum.barc.ernet.in>]

Hello list,
   I have ldap 1.8 installed on the primary server(Linux 2.2.14), and a
replication server configured on FreeBSD system.The problem is as
follows:
Online updations are done to the server using ldapadd or ldapmodify
command.These changes get reflected on the replication server. But i
also regenerate the database completely once daily.That is the database
is thrashed, the user-entries are read again and database is recreated.
    I have observed that slapadd command fulfils the need , but the
replog file is not written to.while if i use ldapadd command the whole
process of binding-writing-unbinding for every entry takes a long time
and creates frequent problems.ldapadd does write to replog file
I want to know if there is any other alternative and if the above
process is right?

Thanx in advance for the help.
