Replication Problems



I sent this a few weeks ago, but didn't see any responses, so I thought
I'd try it one more time, in case someone can offer some advice.

Recently, a client of mine began having problems with his OpenLDAP
2.0.23-6 setup.  He has one master and two replicas, all using the same
version under Debian Linux (Woody), all configured with PAM-ldap and
libnss-ldap, and performing queries against themselves.  This
configuration was working until recently.

In the last week or so, a few users were not able to log in to the
replicas, but could still log in to the master.  'getent passwd <user>'
shows the "broken" user on the master, but none of the slaves.  Users
which can still log in to all servers show up properly using the above
command.

Oddly, we stopped slapd on the replicas, copied over the master databases,
then restarted slapd, yet the problem *still* exists.  If using slapcat to
dump the database, however, the user information is identical on both the
master and slaves.  Master and slave slapd.conf files are identical,
except the master server contains the replica lines.

Yesterday, I attempted to change my password on the master LDAP using the
unix 'passwd' command (which is PAM enabled).  The password was
successfully changed on the master, but was not replicated to the slaves.
My slave replication files show (note: XXXXXXX and "customerdomain" were
added by me to protect the password/domain integrity):

	ERROR: Constraint violation
	replica: africa.customerdomain.com:0
	time: 1026425459.0
	dn: cn=Geoff Silver,ou=people,dc=customerdomain,dc=com
	changetype: modify
	replace: userPassword
	userPassword:: e2NyeXB0fTc3Ri55bm5ZXXXXXXX=
	-
	replace: modifiersName
	modifiersName: cn=Geoff Silver,ou=people,dc=customerdomain,dc=com
	-
	replace: modifyTimestamp
	modifyTimestamp: 20020711221059Z
	-

/var/log/syslog shows the following on all three servers when starting
slapd:

Jul 11 18:04:20 africa slapd[8565]: daemon: socket() failed errno=97
(Address family not supported by protocol)

Finally, I started slurpd on the master server in full debug mode (level
255).  At the bottom of this e-mail is what I believe to be the relevant
part of the dump, but basically I believe the slaves are returning the
error "modifiersName: no user modification allowed", which is being noted
in the master replication logs as a "Constraint violation".

Thanks for *any* help anyone can provide.
