Installed 4.2.52 5 patches. (patch 3 failed, but appears java related)

Changed to syncrepl. But I do feel that the documentation could do with 
a better example, one simpler. I would have thought that simply 
replicating everything is a common desire, when the example is one much 
more complicated.

These are the changes I made to master-slapd.conf (plus ./configure 
--enable-lastmod) :

lastmod         on

index   entryCSN,entryUUID      eq

overlay syncprov

syncprov-checkpoint 100 10
syncprov-sessionlog 100


These are the changes I made to slave-slapd.conf:

lastmod         on

index   entryCSN,entryUUID      eq


syncrepl   rid=1
                provider=ldap://172.20.12.113
                type=refreshAndPersist
                interval=00:00:00:30
                searchbase="dc=company,dc=jp"
                filter="(objectClass=*)"
                attrs="*"
                scope=sub
                schemachecking=off
                updatedn="cn=admin,dc=company,dc=jp"
                bindmethod=simple
                binddn="cn=admin,dc=company,dc=jp"
                credentials="<secret>"

updateref       ldap://172.20.12.113


My replication test of one worked.

Updating of production servers went without a hitch. (knock on wood).

Cheers,

Lund
