I have 2 slapd servers A and B, both require simple authentication and are not open for anonymous access. What I would like to do is setup a node on A that would reference the root of B and would allow me to perform read/write to it.
Why do you need referrals? Note that referrals have to be supported by all LDAP clients you're deploying in this particular scenario => you should avoid using referrals.
I dont want to replication B on A, I just want to act as a proxy.
Then use back-ldap as a LDAP reverse proxy or slapo-chain for chasing the referrals automatically.
