Hi,
We have been using mirror mode for some time as a simple way for us to have an up to date copy in case of a crash and load balancing. We have been using the older slapd.conf configuration in Ubntu Hardy and are now moving up to 2.4.28 in Ubuntu Precise.
The documentation for N-way multi master mentions that cn=config can be replicated. Can this be done in mirror mode as well?
The part I'm particularly trying to figure out is how schema and password policy changes can be sent to both mirrors as well as the proxy and slaves so that we don't have to add ldifs manually an each server.

a) Don't use builds provided by Debian/Ubuntu. Build something sane linked to OpenSSL. b) Use a current release (2.4.34) c) There is no difference in configuration between "Mirror Mode" and MMR. They are the exact same thing configuration wise. The *only* difference is that with "mirror mode" you use some sort of balancer so that only a single server is available for writes at a given time.
