Hi All,

Hi

I am looking at setting up a Openldap + Smba pdc at 3 different locations with replication.

I have these queries:

1. The three locations should have the same database.

Take a look at the admin guide:

http://www.openldap.org/doc/admin24/replication.html

2. Will it be one master and 2 slaves or is there something else which can

be set ?

You can either do that, or use multi-master:

http://www.openldap.org/doc/admin24/replication.html#N-Way%20Multi-Master

3. Will windows users be able to changepasswords(I understand that with

freeIPA, never tried, any docs)

Samba can do that. Take a look at 'ldap passwd sync' in smb.conf(5) and maybe the smbk5pwd overlay in '$LDAP_SOURCES/contrib/slapd-modules'.

4.How is the replication possibile ? 5. Is it possibile.

See above :)

Thanks in advance.
