Today it's so easy to set up two virtual machines with your favourite OS and
work through the replication chapter in the admin guide.

You mentioned Debian. I'd recommend not to use the Debian packages and compile
OpenLDAP 2.4.36+ yourself instead.

Ciao, Michael.


Well, that does not look so easy to me (that's why I'm asking for help :) ), specially considering that I already have a working LDAP working with several hundreds users relying on them to do their work, so it's not possible to me to start from scratch, I have to use what I already have (and not break anything in the process).

For the reason above, I can't compile OpenLDAP myself (I have to use what is already there).
