[tech] Breaking out some of Mussel's services.

[Grahame Bowland]

Hey

Does the slapd replication stuff work these days? It used to be a real
pain in the arse to get working, I think I managed to get it going
once. If we had a backup LDAP server, we'd be able to get in (although
I guess you'd have to wait for query to the dead LDAP primary server
to time out.)
