Re: Selective Replication with OpenLDAP

[Karen R McArthur <kmcarthu@bates.edu>]

I've tried selective replication with no luck - it passes syntax checks, 
but hasn't worked (for me) as I would expect.

I have had better luck with replication of a subtree using the following 
syntax.

master.conf:
replica host=ldap.example.com:389
        bindmethod=sasl
        saslmech=GSSAPI
        realm=EXAMPLE.COM
        authcID=Replicator
        suffix="ou=People,dc=example,dc=com"

replica.conf:
updatedn "cn=Replicator,dc=example,dc=com"
updateref host=ldap.example.com:389
