We've actually been load balancing OpenLDAP for years using LVS-DR.

Our clients do NOT update LDAP though -- to them it's read only.

Kenneth, what type of problems are you encountering?  Our OpenLDAP servers
are currently RHEL 4, they've been RHEL3 and a custom Linux distro in the
past.  Our director is currently RHEL4 as well.
