Re: Slurpd doesn't appear to be working.

Try reading what's in your config files again and noticing that "dc=shuba,dc=com" in the master doesn't match "dc=frontbridge,dc=com "in the slave, and that the master's binddn doesn't match the slave's updatedn, or that the slave's updatedn "dc=frontbridge,dc=org" doesn't match the slave's suffix "dc=frontbridge,dc=com".

Configuring software isn't that hard, if you pay attention.

Free/Open source gets a lot of bad press because people say (a) it's poorly documented, (b) it's hard to understand, and (c) you always get conflicting answers when you ask for help on the mailing lists / newsgroups.

All of the information needed to use OpenLDAP effectively is published as widely as possible. The cause of most of these problems comes down to people not reading carefully, both the people asking the questions in the first place and the people offering incorrect solutions.

I'm trying to get slurpd to push updates to a slave ( am I getting that
backwards, because the name would imply pulling, not pushing ). Anyway, I'm
not getting any errors when I start slurpd, but it doesn't seem to be doing
anything either.
