Dear all,

 

I set up my replication using syncrepl in 2.3.38. The setting is

 

slave

*****************************************************************

syncrepl rid=123
                provider=ldap://master:389
                type=refreshOnly
                interval=00:00:00:20
                searchbase="dc=mycompany,dc=com"
                schemachecking=on
                updatedn="uid=repl_writer,dc=mycompany,dc=com"
                bindmethod=simple

                binddn="uid=repl_reader,dc=mycompany,dc=com"
                credentials=secret

 

updateref  ldap://master:389

 

access to *
  by dn.exact="uid=repl_writer,dc=mycompany,dc=com" write 

        by dn.exact="uid=repl_reader,dc=mycompany,dc=com" read
****************************************************************

 

 

master:

****************************************************************

overlay         syncprov
syncprov-checkpoint 100 10
syncprov-sessionlog 100

 

access to *
  by dn.exact="uid=repl_writer,dc=mycompany,dc=com" write 

        by dn.exact="uid=repl_reader,dc=mycompany,dc=com" read
****************************************************************

 

 

Problem 1:

When I add following user in master:

****************************************************************

dn: uid=testuser,dc=mycompany,dc=com
objectclass: inetorgperson
uid: testuser
cn: cn
sn: sn
userpassword: secret
****************************************************************

 

The userpassword does not replicate to slave. The following is the replicated result in slave.

****************************************************************

# testuser, mycompany.com
dn: uid=testuser,dc=mycompany,dc=com
objectClass: inetOrgPerson
uid: testuser
cn: cn
sn: sn
****************************************************************

 

 

 

Problem 2:

Since the userpassword is missing in the entry, I want to add it in slave by manual.

    ldapmodify   -x   -D "cn=admin,dc=mycompany,dc=com" -w secret -f  /tmp/userpassword.ldif

 

The /tmp/userpassword.ldif is

****************************************************************

dn: uid=testuser,dc=mycompany,dc=com
changetype: modify
add: userPassword
userPassword:  NewSecret
****************************************************************

 

The following is the running result:

****************************************************************

modifying entry "uid=testuser,dc=mycompany,dc=com"
ldapmodify: Referral (10)
        referrals:
                ldap://master:389/uid=testuser,dc=mycompany,dc=com

 ****************************************************************

Even though the result shows that it will update master by referral,  the userpassword in master does not change, and the testuser in slave still do not have attribute userpassword.

After studying the replication configuration, and trying to search the mailist archive, I still do not know how to solve the problem.

 

Thank you.

 

Best regards,

Jacky
