Hi, I had 2 machines with a working OpenLDAP master/slave setup. But due to harddisk crash I wanted to move this to 2 new machines. To do this I copied the both slapd.conf and edited the "replica" section with the new hostnames. I also shut down the old LDAP master and dumped it to an LDIF file with slapcat. This file I read back with slapadd to both the new machines and then I indexed it with slapindex. However, this was perhaps a bit overoptimistic of me becouse now I have the problem that if I add a new entry it appears like it's replicated to the slave which is good. But if I try to change an entry it get stuck in <slave>.rej on the master. So any help on what I might be missing is highly appreciated.
Just a quick note, slapadd does indexing if you have them defined, so there is generally no reason to run slapindex after running slapadd. Plus if you have properly configured your DB_CONFIG file, it will be faster to slapadd with indexing than to slapadd then index.
Have you read the <slave>.rej files to see *why* the changes are being rejected? They always list the reason...
