> Atm, we just support 'smart' referrals (ie, referrals handled in entries), we 
> don't support DSA referrals (or suffix referrals).
> This is a must have : we should be able to redirect all request to another 
> server if the requested DN does not exist in the local DIT, or we should be 
> able to do the same thing if the current server is in maintenance mode.
> This kind of referral must be configured globally, and handled globally. We 
> can add a referral with each suffix, plus a global one. 
> For instance, a global referral can be set this way :
>   <defaultDirectoryService id="directoryService" instanceId="default"
>                            referral="ldap://remote.server:389";
>                            referralActivated="false"
>                            ...
> so that if we change the flag to TRUE, any request will be redirected to the 
> remote server.
> For the suffix referral, we can do that :
>       <jdbmPartition id="example" 
>                                  suffix="dc=example,dc=com"
>                                  referral="ldap://example.com:489";...>
> then any request done on dc=example,dc=com will be redirected on the 
> example.com server.
