Re: how to configure multi-master

[Kevin Elliott <kelliott@dhapdigital.com>]

Folks,

With all this talk about multimaster, could someone point me to some 
resources that describe industry standard implementations and best 
practices of OpenLDAP in multimaster mode for the purposes of high 
availability and robustness? I have yet to see comprehensive documents 
that describe solutions for most small to medium businesses, and would 
love to see something you recommend.

Thanks,
Kevin
