Exactly. And I would be very hesitant to try to build a fault-tolerant system for any application without talking to the people behind that application to find out what methods they have used successfully to do that kind of thing. LVS and heartbeat might work just fine with OpenLDAP. Or they might not. I don't have any specific experience one way or the other, so I'd be real leery about trying to build a highly available OpenLDAP system on top of them, at least not without talking to the people who wrote the code. That's why I suggested that this discussion should be taken to the OpenLDAP.org mailing lists. -- Brad Knowles <b...@shub-internet.org> If you like Jazz/R&B guitar, check out LinkedIn Profile: my friend bigsbytracks on YouTube at <http://tinyurl.com/y8kpxu> http://preview.tinyurl.com/bigsbytracks _______________________________________________ Tech mailing list Tech@lopsa.org http://lopsa.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tech This list provided by the League of Professional System Administrators http://lopsa.org/
