While the Syncrepl replication protocol has been used in OpenLDAP for many years, few other directory implementations have adopted it. To improve interoperability, the syncrepl consumer in OpenLDAP has
been extended to support other legacy replication mechanisms such as SunDS-style retro-changelog
replication, as well as Microsoft ActiveDIrectory DirSync protocol. This talk will describe the changes made to support these additional replication mechanisms, and the capabilities they provide to OpenLDAP
deployments.
