Quanah; Thank you for that completely unbiased opinion. Sheesh... I never had such terrible problems with slurpd. The problem with slurpd was no one wanted to maintain it anymore. So, with major changes in slapd came incompatibilities that no one had interest in working to fix. Personally -- I like Scotties comment... the fancier they make the plumbing, the easier it is to stop it up. Syncrepl has some really interesting failure modes. And figuring out that syncrepl is what loused up your replica can take a while.
