Hi, I'm running an openldap 2.2.23 replica on a debian 3.1 (sarge) system. Once in a while the index gets damaged and I have to use slapreindex to get authentication working again. The master server is running on fedora core (I don't know the version). Is there anything I can do about this problem?

Im using the ldbm backend as was suggested for debian (I can't recall from where I got this). I think it internally uses bdb 4.3

I would rather stay with the version packaged with my distribution if there is no known issue with it.

I have no control over the master-server, but as far as i know it also uses an openldap 2.2.x.
