Sorry for the delay. I e-mailed you instead of replying to the post… I didn’t realise.

Slapcap on the master works when the other box is trying to become a replica.

This might be a dumb question but do you mean using just
“slapcat”?

If so, when trying to establish the replica, “slapcat” just says if can’t find it’s config files….

Replica creation is failing when trying
to authenticate diradmin on the master – at least that’s what I
can work out, and it doesn’t get to the point of setting up and configs.

Okay. I did the upgrades to the existing OD boxes. Tried to make a new replica. Same error.

I again tried the following (not that I’m sure I’ve got everything I need in the following command – can’t find info on the -checkmaster flag):

/usr/sbin/slapconfig -checkmaster admin 10.0.0.2

and I still get:

Error: The master and replica have different software versions.

Anyone got any ideas on this?

I’m having exactly the same problem creating a third OD replica. I created the first two a year or more back. Things went well then.

I can’t see anything in the ODM logs that suggests anything is wrong.

I do get the following in /Library/Logs/slapconfig.log on the machine I’m trying to make a replica:

2007-07-19 11:51:44 +1000 – slapconfig -createreplica
2007-07-19 11:51:44 +1000 – command: ssh [email protected] /usr/sbin/slapconfig -checkmaster diradmin 0 3 3
2007-07-19 11:51:47 +1000 – ssh command failed with status 77
2007-07-19 11:51:47 +1000 – Error: Incorrect username or password. You must enter a directory domain administrator username and password.

I tried looking up slapconfig in the man pages, but there was no mention of the -checkmaster switch…

I tried the following though:

/usr/sbin/slapconfig -checkmaster admin 10.0.0.2

admin’s Password:
Error: The master and replica have different software versions.

The ODM is still running 10.4.9 and the new machine I set up is running 10.4.10. Is that enough to cause the problem? (updating the ODM always scares me !!)

Both machines are G5 Xserves.
