There is no reason to stop LDAP if you are using back-bdb or back-hdb (and if you are using back-ldbm you are also crazy). But you might want to do a: su ldap -c "/usr/bin/db_checkpoint -1 -v -h /var/lib/ldap" ... prior to the backup, and it doesn't hurt to do one periodically anyway (especially with OpenLDAP 2.2.x). -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
