Have followed these instructions, with the fixes from the patch and we
are further along! I now have all servers registered on the master
server and can see them from there as expected.
I now face an issue with "register-ds-admin.pl" when I run it in the
secondary server I get the following output.
If you have such Directory Server, type the full path that stores
the configuration file.
If you don't, type return.
[configuration directory path or return]:
==============================================================================
Candidate servers to register:
/etc/dirsrv/slapd-backus
==============================================================================
Do you want to use this server as Configuration Directory Server?
Directory server identifier: backus
==============================================================================
Do you want to use this server as Configuration Directory Server?
Directory server identifier:
and this justs keeps cycling asking the same question.
If I run on one of the consumers the behaviour is different but still no
very useful. I get a bit further but it refuses to recognise the admin
password.
Do you want to use this server as Configuration Directory Server?
Directory server identifier: barnacle
==============================================================================
Cleaning up old Config DS:

Please input the password for the Administrator User uid=admin,
ou=Administrators, ou=TopologyManagement, o=NetscapeRoot:
Error: failed to clean up the configuration info from the old
Configuration
Directory Server .

Please input the password for the Administrator User uid=admin,

I get the same behaviour if I run on the Master server.
Any suggestions?

I have obviously confused you on this so to start again!
<br>
<br>
I have four machines on which I am installing directory server version
1.1.
<br>
<br>
I have automated the install so that I start with a virgin install
every time - erase the packages and delete all of the files left lying
around and then reinstall the packages.
<br>
<br>
I want to set up the four machines in a fault-tolerant fashion. So I
have an initial master, a secondary on a separate machine, and 2
consumers on the other machines.
<br>
<br>
I can setup the servers on each machine with their own admin server and
can gt the SSL working and have modified the mmr script and can get all
other server to replicate. Master and Secondary in multi-master mode,
consumers fed from master and secondary.
<br>
<br>
What I want to achieve is to have all of the servers sharing the
o=NetscapeRoot paritition (i.e. all having an admin server but all
having the same configuration for the admin server). Now this means
that they need to be in a mesh multi-master - OK I can set that up but
I can't get the servers to register cleanly with the individual admin
servers on each of the machines.

Ok. I understand. First, you have to follow these guidelines -
