syncrepl: target DIT & directory server compatibility

Hi,

I'm planning on using OpenLDAP syncrepl for replicating a DIT fragment from Novell eDirectory using pull-based synchronisation.

If i understood correctly synchronisation requires LDAP Sync protocol support from both the provider and the consumer sides. Any practical experience synchronising between these two different types of directory servers?

How do I configure the syncrepl target DIT? For example if i have a database with suffix "dc=example,dc=com" and locally managed entries stored in o=foo,dc=example,dc=com

and i'd like to synchronise a DIT from another server to o=bar,dc=example,dc=com

How can i configure OpenLDAP to do that?

thanks,

marko
