Ok, discovered something... The way described below does not seem to work. Existing users could logon fine (but probably authenticated from the mysql database) but new users didn't work. Does anyone know if there are do's or don'ts related to having authentication redundancy? Is having multiple ldap servers (failover) a supported configuration?

Hi,

I just found out something by trying, and thought I'd share it on the list, as I've never seen it in any of the examples.

We have three samba dc's, and you can configure koha to use all three ldap servers, to gain failover. Do it like this:

<ldapserver id="ad"> <hostname>dc1.my.domain</hostname> <hostname>dc2.my.domain</hostname> <hostname>dc3.my.domain</hostname> <base>CN=Users,DC=samba,DC=my,DC=domain</base> ... </ldapserver>

It seems to work nicely, and all examples only use one single <hostname>. I hope this info will help someone.
