1) Understand difference between old style config and cn=config 2) Read and learn about different replication topologies. Master-Slave, Multi-Master, Proxy.... What you need is syncrepl. Admin guide: http://www.openldap.org/doc/admin24/replication.html Replication overview: search for suretec slides: OpenLDAP replication strategies, Gavin Henry 3) Man pages. Google... A good book: Mastering OpenLDAP (Packt publishing) Don't trust on 'Zytrax' documentation!
