Re: replication

[Benjamin Griese <der.darude@gmail.com>]

hi frank,

all information to build such a setup are covered in the documentation you mentioned earlier.
http://www.openldap.org/doc/admin24/replication.html#Syncrepl

The provider would be your master, the consumer your slave and so on...
There're some guides out there who show it in another way, but at last its the same setup.

I for myself setup a mirrormod replication and used this guide:

https://help.ubuntu.com/8.10/serverguide/C/openldap-server.html

In a combination of both you should be able to setup a solution for your needs.

Bye.

Hi Frank,

for backup reasons, did you think about a read only slave who has all
the data of the maybe failed master?
When you repaired/replaced the master and have it back online, you would
be able to restore them back to the master.

   Hello

   I wanted to start a "replicant/backup" server at our site.

   Actually we only have one openldap server that serve our LAN
   and I want to start a slave server in case of master's crash.

   I've read documentaion here
   http://www.openldap.org/doc/admin24/replication.html

   But I need some help to choose the best config for our site
   ( a backup server , that's all )

   Thank you
