I know what you mean, I've suffered that myself :) but there's a valid
reason for trying to ignore your suggestion (that I explained in a previous
message).
The Debian build of OpenLDAP is old, links to a potentially insecure
SSL
implementation, and has a variety of known bugs present in it that are
known to affect replication, particularly multi-master. Understand that by
continuing to use the Debian package, you are essentially setting yourself
up for failure when looking at using Multi-Master Replication.
Would you mind to provide me more details about the bugs and potential
problems of using Debian packages? I'm not putting your statements in
doubt, I just need to have solid and documented arguments to convince my
boss that this extra work is really needed.
Thanks in advance for your help!
