what version of openldap are you using?

from de ldap admin guide: "Slurpd replication has been deprecated in favor of Syncrepl replication and has been completely removed from OpenLDAP 2.4."

I think you should try Syncrepl.

Hello!

I'm a newbie to openldap and I am trying to set up a replication openldap server following the guide at http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-openldap/ . After configuration, slapd and slurpd started successfully but when I tried to use the slurpd –d 65535 command, the following error message pop up:

Error: ldap_simple_bind_s for 10.0.11.6:389 failed: Invalid credentials

The configurations of slapd.conf are as follow:

Master:

replogfile             /var/lib/ldap/replog

replica uri=ldap://10.0.11.6

              binddn="cn=Mananger,dc=example,dc=com"

              bindmethod=simple

              credentials=testing

 

Slave:

updatedn "cn=Manager,dc=example,dc=com"

updateref ldap://10.0.11.5

 

The "cn=Manager,dc=example,dc=com" is the rootdn of both master and slave servers and I can use the password "testing" to successfully authenticates commands such as ldapsearch on both machines. What possibly could be the problem?

 

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

 

Sincerely,

Yao Mingxi
