Hi all,
   I'm a newbie. I recently installed openldap2.4.10 on 2 of my systems.My requirement is to chain the  master database on to the slave database..I followed the manual and tried the folowing .The Master and Slave slapd.conf's are as follows:

The Master config file is as follows:
#include statments
.........
.........
access to *
     by dn.base="cn=root,ou=Users,dc=example,dc=com" read
     by * break

#######################################################################
# BDB database definitions
#######################################################################

database    bdb
suffix        "dc=example,dc=com"
rootdn        "cn=root,dc=example,dc=com"
# Cleartext passwords, especially for the rootdn, should
# be avoid.  See slappasswd(8) and slapd.conf(5) for details.
# Use of strong authentication encouraged.
rootpw        secret
# The database directory MUST exist prior to running slapd AND
# should only be accessible by the slapd and slap tools.
# Mode 700 recommended.
directory    /usr/local/var/openldap-data
# Indices to maintain
index    objectClass    eq

overlay syncprov
# contextCSN saved to database every 100 updates or ten minutes
syncprov-checkpoint 100 10


The Slave config file as folows:

#include statments
.........
.........
#######################################################################
# BDB database definitions
#######################################################################

database    bdb
suffix        "dc=example,dc=com"
rootdn        "cn=root,dc=example,dc=com"
# Cleartext passwords, especially for the rootdn, should
# be avoid.  See slappasswd(8) and slapd.conf(5) for details.
# Use of strong authentication encouraged.
rootpw        secret
# The database directory MUST exist prior to running slapd AND
# should only be accessible by the slapd and slap tools.
# Mode 700 recommended.
directory    /usr/local/var/openldap-data
# Indices to maintain
index    objectClass    eq

syncrepl rid=100
  provider=ldap://Master
  type=refreshAndPersist
  retry="5 5 300 +"
  searchbase="dc=example,dc=com"
  attrs=*
  bindmethod=simple
  binddn="cn=root,ou=Users,dc=example,dc=com"
  credentials="<secret>"
  updateref "ldap://Master"

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After this i started the Master server and slave Server with -d 256 option to see like this:
master log:
ber_get_next on fd 12 failed errno=0 (Success)
connection_read(12): input error=-2 id=5, closing.
connection_closing: readying conn=5 sd=12 for close
connection_close: deferring conn=5 sd=12

daemon: epoll: listen=8 active_threads=0 tvp=NULL
connection_resched: attempting closing conn=5 sd=12
connection_close: conn=5 sd=12
daemon: removing 12

slave log:

It means that the slave is not being replicated .. can any one please tell me why this ldap_sasl_bind_s failed (49) is coming..
thanks in advance.
