Hi, You can implement data replication with OpenLDAP. Please check the following link: http://www.openldap.org/faq/data/cache/1170.html Load balancing or fail over can be achieved with third-party software such as KeepAlived (http://www.keepalived.org) or Heartbeat (http://www.linux-ha.org/) . Hope this helps. Sam
