Hello Everyone,

I am trying to implement mirorring replication on OpenLDAP on debian wheezy, and I am struggling since a few days.

All the documentation I have found so far on the web site is related to OpenLDAP with a configuration file (slapd.conf)

Can anyone gives me a clue on how I can adapt the examples given on the web site to the database configuration backend (cn=config).

You can convert a files based configuration to cn=config with slaptest. For example:

ldaptest -f random-slapd.conf -F random-slapd.d

This will generate the ldif that you can poke at and does things like pull out replication bits and apply them to a working server using ldapmodify.

The command is called 'slaptest' - not 'ldaptest'.

Yeah, my fingers are programmed to type ldap. My manager got a bit kick out of it when I asked for a new ldaptop.
