Hello, I am having problems with the admin-serv when doing failure testing in my multi-master environmnet. What I have: 2 masters replicating the userRoot and NetscapeRoot directories various hub and consumer/search servers When I installed the instances on each of these servers, i pointed them at one of the masters, let's call it primary-master, for it's configuration directory. when both masters are up and running, i can connect my admin consoel to either directory and manage my fleet of servers While doing failure mode testing, I discovered that if the primary-master was turned off, that the secondary master admin-serv would not start properly. it gives the following in /opt/fedora-ds/admin-serv/logs/error: [Tue Apr 24 20:37:36 2007] [crit] mod_admserv_post_config(): unable to build user/group LDAP server info: unable to set User/Group baseDN Configuration Failed I followed the instructions found here: http://directory.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Howto:AdminServerLDAPMgmt#How_to_change_the_user.2Fgroup_LDAP_server to change the admin server running on secondary-master to point to itself instead of to the primary master. this did not resolve the issue. Has anyone out there gotten the configuration directory successfully working in a failover capacity in a multi-master environment? ke _________________________________________________________________ The average US Credit Score is 675.
