Hi,
as i have seen the new Berkeley DB Database Versions have a feature to share
the databases over machines. My first thought was: Cool we can throw away
slurpd and all LDAP Servers can write to the database: Not only the Master !

My question: Has anybody tried such a configuration ? Is it possible ?

Thank you in advance
