Hi, I don't know if this is a known issue: as soon as I enable replication and the sync_client gets a "No route to host" from the replica, the rest of the cyrus startup seems to stall: no imap, no lmtp... just because a replica is unreachable. (In this case because iptables was to restrictive on the replica ;-)) Aug 26 22:13:19 haver master[24203]: about to exec /usr/lib/cyrus-imapd/idled Aug 26 22:13:19 haver master[24205]: about to exec /usr/lib/cyrus-imapd/sync_client Aug 26 22:13:19 haver sync_client[24205]: connect(192.87.109.20) failed: No route to host Aug 26 22:14:04 haver last message repeated 2 times Aug 26 22:17:04 haver last message repeated 2 times Aug 26 22:21:04 haver sync_client[24205]: connect(192.87.109.20) failed: No route to host It takes quite long, not sure if the server will ever respond... Paul P.S. I tried this in a test-enviroment running RHEL4 with cyrus-imapd-2.3.7-3 from Simon. ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyruswiki.andrew.cmu.edu List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
