replication setup

[jawed abbasi <jabbasi@yahoo.com>]

Hello

 

 I am trying to setup replication stuff, and yes I admit I really don't understand replication well, so please help me out

 

here is my setup

 

Master slapd.conf

replogfile  /var/log/slurpd.log
syslog-level 4
replica host=pcNavYkfSupp1.navtechinc.com:389
        binddn=Manager,dc=navtechinc,dc=com
        bindmethod=simple credentials='secret'
#        tls=yes

 

Slave ldap

 

# Replicas to which we should propagate changes
#replica host=ldap-1.example.com:389 tls=yes
#       bindmethod=sasl saslmech=GSSAPI
#       authcId=host/ldap-master.example.com@EXAMPLE.COM
updatedn "cn=Manager,dc=navtechinc,dc=com"
updateref "ldap://pcNavYkfSupp2.navtechinc.com"

 

I put binddn and updatedn as Manager as I was not sure if I realy need another dn in ldap database to auth.

 

Strange thing slurpd is not creating any loginfo in the log file I told it to do in slapd.conf.

it created /var/lib/ldap/replic dir and there are 2 files on is status file other is lock file.

I can only run it as root as

usage: slurpd   [-d debug-level] [-s syslog-level]
                [-f slapd-config-file] [-r replication-log-file]
                [-t tmp-dir] [-o]

All those file and replic dir are owned by root.

On slave I even don't see slurpd connecting to ldap on slave

 

Please give me some hint

Thanks
