Unable to Create an Open Directory Replica from 10.6 OD Master to 10.7 Replica

[scarrab666]

Howdy Experts,

I’m trying what I thought would be the simple task of setting up a ‘new’ Server (Running 10.7 Server) to act (amongst other things) as an OD Replica. As I’ve done in the past I removed any connections using the Directory Utility then tried setting up OD to act as a ‘Replica’. Only problem is that it keeps telling me that the Dir Admin password is wrong (which its not). Can anyone point me in the right direction?

PS whaddup with no MySQL in 10.7 Server (I know I can donwload and install it but it was nice and simple previously).

It was never possible in Mac OS X Server to replicate an OD Master to a different server system version, regardless if newer or older. OD Master 10.6 and Replica 10.7 will therefore not work. See the following link:
