OK, so I decided to try what I described earlier (replication in both
directions, with different users using different master servers) . . . .
But now I'm running into an authentication problem. One of my servers
(my original replica) simply refuses to authenticate to the other one
(my original master).
I've double-checked the user name and password, and I know it's in the
sasldb2.db file on the master, but authentication just will not work.
I tried synctest to each server, and I can't connect to either server
using synctest. Examples ("whodunit" is my original master; "flipflop"
is my original replica; and I've obscured the real authentication
strings in the AUTHENTICATE commands):
% synctest -u admin -m plain whodunit
S: * SASL NTLM LOGIN PLAIN GSSAPI OTP DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5
S: * STARTTLS
S: * OK whodunit.richw.org Cyrus sync server v2.3.9
Please enter your password:
C: AUTHENTICATE PLAIN ***************************
S: NO user not found
Authentication failed. generic failure
Security strength factor: 0
C: EXIT
Connection closed.
% synctest -u admin -m plain flipflop
S: * SASL CRAM-MD5 DIGEST-MD5 GSSAPI LOGIN PLAIN NTLM
S: * STARTTLS
S: * OK flipflop Cyrus sync server v2.3.9
Please enter your password:
C: AUTHENTICATE PLAIN ***************************
S: NO authentication failure
Authentication failed. generic failure
Security strength factor: 0
C: EXIT
Connection closed.
What's especially weird is the first one (whodunit), which gave a
"user not found" error, even though there IS an account named "admin"
in the sasldb2.db on that machine.
Any ideas what I might be doing wrong here?
