Re: Synchronization/replication and testing with ldapsearch

Thanks a lot! The example from the Net::LDAPapi perl module (http://search.cpan.org/dist/perl-ldap/lib/Net/LDAP/Control/SyncRequest.pm) works flawlessly with the syncprov overlay.

Hi!

I'm trying to setup an instance of slapd that supports RFC4533 (Content Synchronization Operation) for use with a consumer that is *not* another slapd instance. So right now I want to test my slapd instance with 'ldapsearch' instead of in an master-slave setup.

I'm on Mac OS X with the following in my slapd.conf:

overlay syncprov
syncprov-checkpoint 100 1
syncprov-sessionlog 100

Then I use ldapsearch

ldapsearch -x -h localhost -Esync=ro

but I get no syncCookie. Essentially I want to achieve what has been asked (but not answered) here: http://www.openldap.org/lists/openldap-software/200907/msg00045.html.

Is there anything else I need to add to slapd.conf or is my ldapsearch command missing something? Any pointers to documentation of how to set it up?

I'd suggest you use the Net::LDAPapi perl module, and read the documentation, which gives an example of a sync client and how to test with it.
