I agree:

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_ldap.html  
--> no indications on more than one ldap servers declaration

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_authnz_ldap.html
-->
"host:port
The name/port of the ldap server (defaults to |localhost:389| for
|ldap|, and |localhost:636| for |ldaps|). To specify multiple, redundant
LDAP servers, just list all servers, separated by spaces.
|mod_authnz_ldap
<http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_authnz_ldap.html>| will try
connecting to each server in turn, until it makes a successful connection."

That's what I'm trying to do, with no result...

How do you people achieve redundancy on LDAP based web authentication ?

Thx,
kfx
