We do it like that; your writes actually will go 'straight' to the master LDAP (not Samba as your diagram shows). The master LDAP is configured so that it updates the slave. So, the master LDAP is the only writer to the slave. (via a referer)
It is as safe as your VPN (quite safe) Kind regards Bert De Ridder PeopleWare NV - Head Office Cdt.Weynsstraat 85 B-2660 Hoboken Tel: +32 3 448.33.38 Fax: +32 3 448.32.66 PeopleWare NV - Branch Office Geel Kleinhoefstraat 5 B-2440 Geel Tel: +32 14 57.00.90 Fax: +32 14 58.13.25 http://www.peopleware.be http://www.mobileware.be Jochen Witte <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 10/02/2005 11:13 To [email protected] cc Subject [Samba] Replicated LDAP Hello, I would like to have a central LDAP-Server in my main office and a replicated one in my satellite office, connected via VPN. Then I want my SAMBA-PDC in the satellite to use the local LDAP. I think this should end in: READ ---- Samba <-> Replicate WRITE ----- Samba -> Replicate <-referrer- Samba <-> Central LDAP Am I right with my assumption? Is this setup possible and advisable?
