I agree with you Etienne, and it's on my TODO list to update the OpenLDAP
section with instructions for a master/slave replication setup.  Also, I
believe there is a somewhat recent bug suggesting just that.

We could move, after improving if needed, the MMR instructions to the wiki
to help those that prefer that setup.  I'm not sure how much time I'll have
to work on it this week, but any  and all patches are very welcome :-).
