Partial replication

[Joe Friedeggs <friedeggs44@hotmail.com>]

Is it possible to replicate, on a slave, two branches of the DIT (only)?  I have several instances of LDAP running on servers throughout the world.  Connection to some of these from our support location is not dependable.  I want to do something similar to this:

Main LDAP (here, master):

dc=example,dc=com
    |
    +--o=support
    |
    +--o=location_A
    |

    +--o=location_B
    |

    +--o=location_C







In Location A (remote slave):

dc=example,dc=com

    |

    +--o=support

    |

    +--o=location_A



In Location B (remote slave):



dc=example,dc=com


    |


    +--o=support


    |


    +--o=location_B





Location A & B are two different customers, therefore it would not be prudent to replicate Location B's users in Locations A.  But I need the Support group to exist in all locations.

Can this be done using syncrepl?  

Another thought is to have LDAP Masters existing in each location, and somehow replicate the Support branch to each (mirrormode?).  Should this be the approach?

Thanks,
Joe
