A chaining database is read-write - it looks just like a local db to clients.Hi,We have 2 existing directory services set-up with different schemas:1) Active Directory 2) iPlanet LDAPNow we want to introduce a third one (Fedora LDAP) where we want to use referal/chaining features to send requests to these already existing servers. Would really appreciate your answers on: 1) Can we modify/update active directory data and iPlanet data with application interfacing only with new Fedora LDAP which will dispatch requests to these servers? Or can referal/chaining be used only for querying other LDAP servers?
2) Can Referal/Chaning be set-up across ActiveDirectory and Fedora with them having different schemas? Similarly between iPlanet and Fedora?Not sure about AD. Some other people on the list have been trying to get chaining and pass through auth to work with AD, but I haven't seen any reports of success yet.
iPlanet to Fedora should work just fine.
3) If we want to migrate data from iPlanet to Fedora (having diff schema on Fedora) then any issues we must be aware of and any best practices?Just make sure your customized schema is copied to Fedora. iPlanet and Fedora DS are very compatible.
