I’ve been running NSDS 7.1 very successfully for a couple of years now (Thanks!), but want a second DS to back it up. Accordingly I recently installed fedora-ds-1.0.4.1.FC5.x86_64.opt.rpm on RH Enterprise Server 5.1. I haven’t gotten much further than running ./setup/setup on the new system.

 

Having finished the basic install, I’m now trying to figure out what to do, and have a few questions. J

 

I was thrilled to find it show up under the admin page on the 7.1 system. However, when I click on the new server’s Server Group/Directory Server under the admin’s Servers and Applications Tab, I get a window entitled: Class Loading Error: “Failed to install a local copy of fedora-ds-1.0.jar or one of its supporting files: error result [OK]”

 

So…

 

1. It is too much to expect to administer the 1.0.4.1 system from the 7.1? If not, what do I need to do to make it work?

 

2. When I try to start-admin on 1.0.4.1, I get the error:

 

Httpd.worker: Could not open configuration file /opt/fedora-ds/admin-serv/conf/httpd.conf: No such file or directory

 

Sure enough, it’s not there. Did I miss an install step or howto? Where can I get an example to hack up for my system? I’m using /usr/sbin/httpd.worker , which came with RHES 5.1

 

3. Also, can someone point me to a howto on setting up 1.0.4.1 to mirror what the 7.1 system does? I suppose I have to either drop an ldif on the older system and load it on the new, and/or set up some kind of multi-master or … ? Ideally, I would like to add/delete a user in one system and have the other reflect that change within a reasonable time interval.

 

Thanks,

Ken.
