I've been through the FDS/389 website, and the best I've come up with is this: http://directory.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Howto:OpenldapIntegration Unfortunately, that gives me the sync in the wrong direction. We have pre-existing OpenLDAP servers that belong to a different group. We're supposed to be their ultimate source of data - once we get set up - but they won't change their servers from OpenLDAP because, as they say, they know how they work and why should they do more work. I don't need data synced back from OpenLDAP, but syncrepl doesn't appear to do the right thing when pointed at an FDS directory server, so what's the secret, undocumented method? Even a hint would help. Google just keeps turning up pages where people have named their box "Fedora" and it's all openldap to openldap. -- ,___, {o,o} Anne "Juniper" Cross (___) Senior Linux Systems Engineer and Extropic Crusader -"-"-- Information Technology, ITA Software /^^^
