Re: OpenLDAP and failover

Hi:

   I think there is one more posibility: what about using a RAID based 
on network software? I've readen about DRBD, a software used for 
implementing a RAID 1 system based on software wich can be used to 
mirror two phisically different machines.
   Note that I've never used it, I only work with RAID1 local software, 
but may be it could be usefull for you.

Sorry for my poor english.

Good luck
