Thanks for providing that. I have a main-server installed now, however I 
still have not encountered any instances of LDAP changes being lost. I 
checked that slapd.conf still uses 'dbnosync', and I stopped squid to 
avoid it delaying shutdown. I've added/modified users and groups in 
gosa, I've changed users' passwords in gosa, and I've done bulk LDAP 
modifications from the command line, but I still have not observed any 
changes being lost after rebooting. Any idea what I'm missing? Any 
configuration changes at your end?

(In case it matters: this particular tjener is a virtualbox VM.)
