Hello,

I have a master on OpenLDAP 2.3 (BDB 4.2) on FreeBSD 6.3-STABLE. I have been replicating its directory via syncrepl which works flawlessly on 2.3 systems. I have installed a brand new system using FreeBSD 7.1-BETA and OpenLDAP 2.4.11 (BDB 4.6). Using the same synrepl configuration, il fails to parse the configuration file. I did read the migration guide and the admin guide for 2.4 but I can't make sense of this.

In debug mode, this is what i get (changed my dc with example):

<<< dnNormalize: <dc=example,dc=com> /usr/local/etc/openldap/slapd.conf: line 177: Error: parse_syncrepl_line: unable to parse "updatedn=cn=MyAdminr,dc=example,dc=com" . failed to add syncinfo

Now, the relevant slapd.conf conf bit is:

syncrepl rid=666 \ provider=ldaps://master.example.com:636 \ type=refreshAndPersist \ searchbase="dc=example,dc=com" \ scope=sub \ filter="(objectClass=*)" \ attrs="*" \ schemachecking=off \ updatedn="cn=MyAdmin,dc=example,dc=com" \ bindmethod=simple \ binddn="cn=LdapSyncUser,dc=example,dc=com" \ credentials=mysupersecretpass updateref ldaps://master.example.com

Has anyone encountered this before? A bit of reading on various threads did not return anything useful so far.

Cheers, Steph
