Re: N-Way MultiMaster with 2.4

Gavin,

Thanks is what I thought.   The logs don't show much.   I've set  
things up pretty much as described in the blogpost listed below.

I see it walk the cn=config database doing a search and compare I  
expect, but then it does not appear to do anything else.

I've clobbered the config now so I can't give you a good logdebug but  
if I get it back to the same point I can share.

Thanks for validating the config settings for me.
