Hi Karsten, I'll leave the questions about replication to the experts,

1. I've read in an older debian bug report, that changing
olcAuthRegexp requires a slapd restart in order to be effective. Is
that still the case?
Yes.
I've been working on it and I think the code is working, but still need
to test it more thoroughly. Should be included in OpenLDAP 2.5; the
changes are a little too invasive for 2.4 at this point.
If yes, could this *please* be added to the manpage and the
documentation? Pretty please?
The Debian package was patched to note this in the slapd-config(5) man
page. IIRC the man page patch was rejected upstream in favour of just
fixing the code.
2. Is ldapwhoami supposed to also print out the result of a
authz-regexp mapping?
I believe it is, yes. (Except "instead" rather than "also", but I think
that's what you meant.)
