Hi Managers.
I'm setting up replication for my LDAP environment to provide for site
failover with disaster recovery. I'm running Sun Iplanet Directory
Server 5.1 SP3 on Solaris 9. I found a script for replication in the 5.1
admin guide. The script uses ldapsearch and ldapmodify to perform the
replication from supplier to consumer. Below is the script. From what I
can tell this script creates an ldif file and then conducts a modify via
the network.
The two questions I have are how is the data copied (tcp/ip on the port
that LDAP is set to run on?) and does anyone have a detailed man pages
for ldapsearch and ldapmodify. The man pages that are in iplanet
documentation and solaris don't show half of these options below. I need
to understand exactly what these commands are doing.
Thanks for your help,
Craig Everett
