          Hello,

          In a first time  I configured the synchronisation between one
          AD and one

          389DS. it is working fine. Now, I would like to mount a new
          one 389DS

          that will be a replica read-only of the first :

          I read this doc :

          http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Directory_Server/8.2/html/Administration_Guide/Managing_Replication-Configuring_Multi_Master_Replication.html

          http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Directory_Server/7.1/html/Administrators_Guide/sync.htm#2876133

           From this picture I want something more simple like :

          Consumer read-only (replica)<-----> Supplier Read-Write
          <----Sync--->

          Windows AD

          I don't see how I can configure the replication on the
          Supplier

          The supplier sync with AD a database that contains user and
          group of the AD

          The supplier has one more database with Unix user and group (I
          can

          enable replica on this database and it is working (it is a
          single

          master) , I got the replication  of this database on the
          consumer)

          The problem is for the first database (AD) that is a dedicated
          consumer

          for the Windows AD. I dont see how configure as a single
          master to do

          the replication to the consumer.

          Support or explanation will help me

          Thanks,

      It's documented in the section 9.5.1 and 9.5.2.
    Yes, but I don't find the answer to my question in the
    documentation.

    In my configuration of the replica settings are :

    In replica role : "Dedicated consumer" (Must  I change it to
    "Multiple Master" ? )

    Common settings : Replica ID = 65535  (now I read this must be a
    digit between 1 and 65534) Must I change it and what are therefore
        if I change the value ?

      Question, what version of AD are you using? Because I was
        able to configure Windows Sync agaisnt AD 2008r2 but it doesn't
        work with 2003. I wrote a patch to the windows sync pluging to
        get it working.

    I use 2008r2

Yes, let it configured as "Multiple Master". If you have a read-only consumer, the master could be configured as "multi-master"  or "single master".

If don't remember the allowed range for ID, but don't use 65535 to be sure.

Thanks for the information about 2008r2. 

Regards,
 Diego
