No. On a properly configured setup it is impossible for two servers to

Thanks a lot for your explanation! So, should one assume that the
server with the highest serverID will have priority when it comes to
conflict resolution?

Yes.

Also, when and how is the serverID determined? Is
this manually configurable?

Yes. Read the slapd config manpage.
