I'm new to LDAP administration and have been tasked with fixing the system replication of 4 Linux systems running Fedora Directory Services. I am very comfortable working with Linux/Unix but am not experienced with LDAP. I've been reading the communications from this user group and reading as much as I can from documentation. I believe this environment is not too complex but I am looking for some guidance, any assistance is greatly appreciated.
Info:
OS: Fedora Core 4
LDAP: Fedora Directory Server v 7.1
First, I know that both the systems and FDS versions are ancient. However, at this point I need to get the replication working prior to putting together a migration plan. I have access to the Directory Manager console and am comfortable running command line commands as well. Either way is fine.
Questions:
1. How can I find out which system(s) is/are master, consumer, hub, etc?
2. How do I confirm that the systems have the correct credentials for replication? (I am receiving: "Unable to acquire replica: Permission denied.")
a. How can I change the bind dn "cn=replication,cn=config" credentials on each system to ensure replication will work?
3. I assume that upon repairing replication (apparently it has not been working for several years) the systems will all replicate to the most recent information. Correct?
Again, any guidance is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Herb
