Openldap dbtype meta

Hi all,
I built openldap-stable-20030709 with configure options
enable meta and rewrite. As I want to try out the new meta-directory functions.

After fiddling I finially got it to run, I have 3 Openldap servers dishing out 3 different contexts, Through the 4th openldap meta server. My problem is when browsing or searching I cannot view any of the subtree, I can only hit root ou's. I have used a variety of ldap clients and all chase referels, and will search subtree.

My main goal is to use this as a meta server for AD, Exchg5.5 and other Openldap servers. Then put a web frontend on the meta server to lookup information as a single source. Feasable?

Sounds like you might be interested in chaining. I have conducted an undergraduate research project in this area if you wnat to find more. You will find full documentation at

OpenLDAP Chaining (http://www.mark-macdonald.com/ldap)

Good luck!
