Next question -- What version of OpenLDAP are you running? 

slapd 2.3.19

I know it's an older version.  This box will be replaced with a newer
version (slapd 2.3.27) in a few months, but it's slow going to move over
a network like ours to a new LDAP infrastructure.


Please keep replies on the list.

I would note that OpenLDAP 2.3.27 is *also* an ancient release. It appears you are making the common mistake of using vendor supplied builds (I.e., RHEL or CentOS). Don't do this, it's sure suicide.

See: <http://www.openldap.org/faq/data/cache/1456.html>

What version of BDB your OpenLDAP is linked to would also be useful. In any case, checkpointing certainly works for me with later OpenLDAP 2.3 releases, but I know it was broken in OL 2.2, and it may have been in the early 2.3 releases.

If you can't build and maintain OpenLDAP yourself, I highly advise either contracting with Symas for their builds that come with support (http://www.symas.com), or using the builds from Buchan Milne (<http://staff.telkomsa.net/packages/>).
