Hello,

I have a master and slave LDAP server setup. The setup
is working as expected... changes on the master are
reflected on slave server immediately. If the slave
server was shutdown and a change in master LDAP was
made that time, those changes wont get pushed to
slave. How to keep both master and slave in sync. I
would like the slave to get in sync with master when
it is restarted; if any changes were made on master
while it is down. Do I need to use syncrepl?  Can I
use both syncrepl and slurpd? Please advice!

If this is the case, then your installation isn't working correctly, as change in the master should always be pushed to a slave, even if it was offline for a period of time. Sadly, you do not state what version of OpenLDAP you are using, so it is impossible to know if you are referencing a problem that was already fixed in a later release.
