Hi all,passdb backend = ldapsam:ldap://192.168.1.60
I'm setting up a number of samba DC's across several branch offices using the Samba 3.0.0 release's native LDAP support. I'd like to build some redundancy into my setup, such as having slave LDAP servers in case the master is down/unavailable. However, when I have multiple ldapsam entries in my smb.conf I get duplicate or triplicate users listed when performing a /usr/local/samba/bin/pdbedit -L, and all 2 or 3 LDAP servers get queried no matter what. Is there anyway to list multiple backup LDAP servers instead of just having overlapping SAMs?
Also, there will be some remote offices connected via relatively high-latency WAN links to the master LDAP server. Will this be a problem in terms of adding machine accounts or changing passwords (and that data being replicated to the local slave LDAP server at the branch offices in a timely manner)? I'd like to only have the remote offices send traffic over the WAN links when absolutely necessary (such as changing passwords or receiving replica updates pushed out from the master LDAP server).
Regards, Thomas
