When slapd is configured to generate a replication logfile, it writes out a file in a format which is a variant of the LDIF format. The replication log gives the replication site(s), a timestamp, the DN of the entry being modified, and a series of lines which specify the changes to make. In the following example, ``Liam Q Antbear'' has replaced a line of his multiLineDescription. The change is to be propagated to the slapd instance running on cayman.rs.itd.antbear.com. The lastModifiedBy and lastModifiedTime attributes are also propagated to the slave slapd.
