I would advise reading the OpenLDAP 2.3 administrators guide at:

<http://www.openldap.org/>

syncrepl is a replacement for slurpd that does pull based replication. I.e., the slaves connect to the master, and pull down changes, rather than a separate process running on the master pushing data to the replicas.
