Since we haven't been fixing any slurpd bugs lately, it doesn't seem like a good idea to continue releasing it. I'd like to cvs rm it from HEAD and RE24. Comments?
Please. :P
Although there was one concern expressed recently that the syncrepl w/ back-ldap as a push method wasn't a great solution as a replacement, since it requires opening holes in the firewall in the reverse direction.
Huh? It requires no such thing. syncrepl w/back-ldap will work with the exact same firewall setup as slurpd.
Well, it wasn't my concern. I'm just saying what they expressed. ;)
The relevant thread is:

If they are wrong, then so much the better. :)
That person was talking about plain syncrepl, not assisted via back-ldap.
We can just add a Firewall section to the Replication section in the new Admin guide for this setup.
I'll make a note.
