Shalom Stone666,

It would appear to be possible.

Here is an example, though I'm not certain its detailed enough to guide you through the process.

Yes, they can, simply specify the list of ldap servers in /etc/ldap.conf:

host server1 server2
Por que hacerlo dificil si es posible hacerlo facil? - Why do it the hard way, when you can do it the easy way?

Hi Ivan,

Thanks, I will try if the secondary server can be found when primary server has failed.
