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.

Regards,
Mourik Jan
