I am attempting to setup an openldap proxy, which i'd like to connect to
a number of openldap directories in a round-robin fashion.
There are currently 2 ldap servers, with a round-robin DNS hostname
pointing to them.
I setup openldap to proxy to this hostname, but it seems that when i
actually connect to the proxy, it picks one of the addresses, and holds
on to it. If it gets the second server on its first connection, it then
continues to use that server.
Is there a way to make openldap connect to each server? Whether it uses
the round robin hostname or not is irrelevant. Two methods I can think
of would be to somehow keep slapd from caching the dns name. Or if I can
specify each server separately in the slapd.conf on the proxy.
Thanks!
