To answer my own question, it seems that yes, this is what others are experiencing. I note this post from Quanah Gibson-Mount: http://www.openldap.org/lists/openldap-devel/200510/msg00014.html where he mentions the time taken for the slaves to receive updates. It seems that in some scenarios, delta-syncrepl may be a better choice for replication. There is a description on how to setup delta-syncrepl here: http://www.connexitor.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=3 I'm about to try this. -- Norman Gaywood, Systems Administrator University of New England, Armidale, NSW 2351, Australia Please avoid sending me Word or Power Point attachments.
