Hi,
If a client tries to send a modify request to a consumer server, can
the consumer server use chaining to send this update request to the
supplier server automatically? I don't want to use referrals in this
case as this would mean the client has to contact the supplier server
which is not possible for us because of firewall issues. We are
running iPlanet DS 4.1 on Solaris 8.
You can do this with Netscape Directory Server 6.11. There is an
undocumented feature called Replication Consumer Chain on Update. This
allows consumers to chain write requests to their suppliers, but to
serve read requests from their read only databases.
Thanx
