Hi Emmanuel, Is the apacheds-tools.jar capable of doing backup/restores? A search on the archives seem to indicate that it is broken and one should use OpenLdap tools to perform backup/restore via the command line http://web.archiveorange.com/archive/v/DCLZ8EQq6MXcLPfXYRB3 Trying the command java -jar apacheds-tools.jar dump -i /path/to/apacheds -p system Yielded java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.directory.daemon.InstallationLayout On a subject that relates to backups, is replication not working in ApacheDS 1.5.7?
