I have been doing tests on openLDAP and have found that under the following
circumstances LDAP querries cause slapd to terminate abnormally.

populate master server with 100000 entries
populate slave server with 50000 entries
(I did this both through ldapmodify to the master (which then sent appropriate
entries to the slave via slurpd) and through direct population using slapadd)

-ask slave for entries that live only on the master
-when the referral is returned query the refered server (master) for the info

Result:
   -partway through the test slapd (on the master) dies... subsequent searches
try to
follow the slave referral (to the master) and report that the host is now
unreachable.
a ps -ef | grep slapd (on the master) reveals that slapd is no longer running.

I can send files for recreating this problem.. I do not see an attachment
