I would like to get OpenLDAP to trigger a GCDS sync whenever either certain attributes are modified or even anything the DB, if it isn't possible to limit it to certain attributes.
I am thinking along the lines of OpenLDAP calling some external program after a modification, but if there is another way to do this that I am missing, I am all ears. I have looked at the various overlays but none seem relevant.
Has anyone done this or have general suggestions?

Use your own custom syncrepl client that "listens" for changes and executes whatever action anytime a relevant change is made.

Based on perldoc Net::LDAP::Control::SyncRequest i built a script that monitors modifications to the database.

If you want GCDS to receive every change, just set up a syncrepl consumer on a back-ldap backend, pointed to GCDS.
Hi Dieter,
Is your script publicly available, by any chance? Thanks.
