Hello, I am now facing a new issue which could well be due to me but I need to be sure. I have set a new slave running 2.4.17 on Debian whilst the master is a 2.3.43 running on FreeBSD 6.4. I have observed a similar behavior on a slave running 2.3.43 also on FreeBSD. That behavior is that when you start an empty database, syncrepl starts copying the content but usually stops after a while (ie. copies only part of the database but far from all objects). Is it recommended to slapcat the objects when setting up a new slave or is syncrepl able to do that by itself? This is my syncrepl rules: syncrepl rid=124 \ provider=ldaps://masterldap.example.com:636 \ type=refreshAndPersist \ searchbase="dc=example,dc=com" \ scope=sub \ filter="(objectClass=*)" \ attrs="*" \ schemachecking=off \ tls_cacert=/etc/ldap/cert/cacert.pem \ binddn="cn=ldaprep,dc=example,dc=com" \ credentials=xxxxxx Cheers, Steph

Set proper limits on provider and consumer, otherwise the default limit settings are applicable to cn=ldaprep,dc=example,dc=com.
