Rich,
Thanks for the tip! So far that seems to be exactly what i need! I had
to set
nsProxiedAuthorization to "no" for my proxy to work, once i did that I
started getting the expected results of my query!
I've set this up on one server, and I DO have a question about the best
way to push this out to my replica's. Can Linking directories be
replicated like other root suffix's, or should i be manually adding them
to all the replica's. Can you set a replication agreement up for a Link
/Chain at all, and if you can, should you?
I'm not sure what you mean - do you mean replicate the definition of the
database link? If so, then no, you cannot replicate cn=config.
However, you can add the database link definition over LDAP, so you
could easily script it with ldapmodify to add it to all of your replicas.
Thanks! And thanks again for steering me in the right direction!
