I did an authentication setup a while ago, which needed to talk to differing backends depending on what domain was in the auth attempt. It also needed to failover to backup ldap servers if a primary was down. I ended up using a flat file table of domain, server, and search base. A job runs from cron once per minute, and updates the table, so that a down primary server is noticed, and worked around. The ldap servers involved are so reliable, that a <60 second outage, once a year, just isn't a big deal. -- -------------------------------------------------------- Dave Lugo [EMAIL PROTECTED] LC Unit #260 TINLC Have you hugged your firewall today?
