Due to reasons beyond my control, I'm currently at OpenLDAP version slapd
2.2.13 (Aug 18 2005 22:22:34). As such syncrepl, based on your
versioning guideline below isn't an option.
If you're sticking with 2.2.13 for "vendor support", judging by the version
number, I'm guessing that is with a vendor that now has their own LDAP
server, and they primarily use OpenLDAP for the library (to support ldap
clients).
We use that vendors distro, but run our own packages (rebuilt from the
Mandriva SRPMs since I maintain those myself).
My older (2.3.27) set is available here:

If someone needs the 2.3.30's I built a few weeks ago ... I'll update them
there too.
