Patches for this are welcome !

Exactly for the moment it's important to verify the status of the 
replication.

For instance
DC=test,DC=samba,DC=home,DC=matws,DC=net
     Default-First-Site-Name\S2-W2K8R2 via RPC
         DSA object GUID: 1b179fd5-d6de-44df-ab9d-2b60044bcbb0
         Last attempt @ Sun Nov 13 18:36:41 2011 CET failed, result 8 
(WERR_NOMEM)
         9 consecutive failure(s).
         Last success @ Sun Nov 13 14:06:35 2011 CET

is not good (although in my case it's not such an issue).
