That document covers a number of different topics, not all of which will be used together. I tried following the configuration in your earlier email a second time, and it looks like on one server, you're creating an LDBM database for the suffix "ou=bh,dc=mg", and then creating a link to another server for the same suffix. I'm pretty sure you can only do one of those two things for a given suffix. In other words, your configuration can't include two identical entries, 'cn="ou=bh,dc=mg",cn=mapping tree,cn=config'. So, try explaining the topology that you're trying to achieve as an end result, and maybe we can give you a better idea of how to approach it. > But, when I finished to follow the tutorial(create the partition in > one server e the subpartition in the other server), I can't restart > the slapd.

Your original message didn't give names or IP numbers for the servers, which you should include. > And the only thing that I need is to create a partition in the master > server (dc=mg) and create a sub-partition in the other server > (ou=bh,dc=mg) If that's the case, you probably don't want a database link, unless you want the "other" server to contain a database for which the "master" server will also answer. If the two servers have different suffixes, how are they related?
