Re: Master slapd doesn't update

Hallo Jorge,

First of all, you have to create a DN in your slaves, which will be 
allowed to update them. Assuming this DN is called

cn=updater,o=ilc

and has password abcdef

in master.conf you write

replica host=pc-ckim:389
binddn="cn=udater,o=ilc"
bindmethod=simple
credentials=abcdef

and in slave.conf you write

updatedn="cn=updater,o=ilc"

When binding to your slaves do not use this DN.

In other words
1) Create a user in your slave ldap with permission to update slave ldap.
2) Configure your master to bind to your slaves as that user
3) Do not bind to slaves as this user yourself

Best regards, vadim tarassov.
