[Samba] samba + slave OpenLdap (read-only)

[jakjr]

Hey,

When I try to join a new machine on a domain, it's simple fail.

I already set the "ldap replication sleep" to a higher value, but this do
not work.

I'm using synrepl on ldap (refreshAndPersist) and this is working. Including
the referral return if the updateref config on slapd.conf.

Thanks
