Ok, I solved my problem with glueing databases.I added ldif file dn: dc=example,dc=com objectclass: dcObject objectClass: organization dc: Example o: Example with ldapadd command then, removed database files from my /var/lib/ldap/sub-rid-00X directories and restart ldap. It worked. After strugling with this problem for a day it appeared that this is kind of very basics of openldap quick startup.

The replication of this database could let me get this database replicated, and won't need it to add manualy. Am I right?

Although I can use my luma browser and see replicas as if they were one database, aliases are not working. Is this by design? Is there any way to make them work in glued databases? I just need a confirmation if somebody thinks I'm not reading manuals :) And if i should forget aliases, what could be a work arround or alternative solution to get uids stored in o=BranchMain,dc=example.dc=com apear in o=BranchX,dc=example,dc=com on each replica? > Thanks in advance twice > Liutauras >
