Il s'agit d'un message multivolet au format MIME. --------------74F9391F8ACE9B290DB0D9AC Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Hi Not much solutions but some advices .... 1)Replication is not yet part of the LDAP standards , so most editors do what they want .... some of them (IPlanet for exemple )use ldap protocol to replicate, wich can help to to tricky stuff , but from what I know (I'm no expert in AD) M$ is using some "proprietary" stuff .... 2) Another point you'll have to be aware is the content of your AD .... here again from what I read , M$ doesn't use standards objects ... so you'll have two choices : a) You extend your Linux Ldap Schema so it can contains M$ objects b) You change M$ objects in standards object when you replicate 3) From my point of view, unless you can afford tools like Meta-Directories (but I doubt ! ;o) )) you'll have to create scripts to read your AD and write your Linux LDAP, depending in how much information you have it migth be easier to erease information every now and then , then to try to erease only things that have changed ... Hope this helps ... Gilles PS : As I'm actually starting to study Standards compliance in Directory Products , I'll be very interested in any new information on your problem ... as it's tithgly connected .
