A fairly basic question to confirm functionality (and options). Currently, we have a fairly basic configuration of a "master" server and then a couple of "slaves" using syncrepl and chaining. All is working great (in this prototype). We have come across one point we would like to confirm though. When an update is sent to a "slave", the updateref tells the slave to make the update on the master and the client is non-the wiser. That is, until the master returns an error. If the master returns an error (master unavailable or master actually returned a non-zero error code), the slave returns the referral to the client to the master and the client needs to connect to the master to determine what's up (of course, the client might not have permissions to do what it needs on the master to even be able to replicate the same situation to get the same error message?) Is the above the expected functionality? Are there options for the above which would pass the error code from the master to the slave to the client instead of passing the referral of the master to the client? Currently using 2.3.38. Kudos to the OpenLDAP team. This is really pretty slick. Benji --- Benji Spencer System Administrator Ph: 312-329-2288
