Re: slapd 1.2.13 stops replicating

[Alan Sparks <asparks@quris.com>]

It's my production master, so I don't have much logging turned on.
Backend is BDB 2.7.7.  Server certainly acts like it thinks it gets a
MON operation, since it changes the data in ther master DB.  But nothing
appears in the replog.

Is there any chance this could be thread related?  While the FAQ-O-Matic
describes (and I use) the Solaris threaded build hints, I note a mention
that Solaris threads are preemptive and unsuitable for OL 1.2.x.  Wonder
if this is an artifact of that...  but I reach.
