Yes, that's what should be happening. When you send the modify password request to the consumer, it should send back a referral to the supplier. You can see this in the access log - a MOD request followed by a response with err=10 (referral). If however the client is using the password modify extended operation, I don't think that is referred to the supplier. In this case, you will see EXT as the operation type in the access log for the request.I have a quick question on password changes; my current setup is the following: I have 2 directory servers, single master environment (supplier and consumer); I understand that all changes to the directory have to be made by the supplier and are then replicated to the consumer; when a client server binds to the consumer and a user attempts to change their password, they receive an unknown error response from the server, and changes are not made; simply configuring the client's ldap.conf file to bind first with the supplier resolved this issue, however I was wondering if it's possible to configure the consumer in such a way that he will refer the update to take place on the supplier instead of rejecting the change to the database?
I would have thought that the consumer would simply refer changes automatically to the supplier, but that doesn't seem to be the case. Any thoughts?
Check the access logs, as above.
I do know that I can configure both servers to be masters, but I was hoping to avoid this (I've read thru some of the directory server documentation citing errors and so forth in a multi-master environment) Thanks.
