[Fedora-directory-users] perl script for setting up replication without console
Here is the script I''ve been working on for setting up replication without using the console. It''s basically an evolution the original mmr.pl, with new functionality. It has a config file you need to properly setup, here is a quick rundown of the options. SUPPLIERS = All supplier servers that you want to monitor,setup. ; delimited and you can specify the default port with a : (not required though) CONSUMERS = All consumer servers. ROOT_DN = user to bind with for modifying objects in cn=config (generally cn=Directory Manager) REP_DN = Replication Manager''s dn (ie uid=RManager,cn=config) REPMAN_PW = Replication Manager''s password PAM_SECRET = libpam-ldap''s root bind dn password file (sucked in automatically to use as the ROOT_DN''s password NSS_SECRET = same as above but will only get checked if PAM_SECRET doesn''t exist. REP_ID = replica ID value for MMR. Set this to 1 when you first run and the script will manage it from then on. TLS = Set to 1 to always enable TLS, 0 or null for not always turned on (you can pass the -z switch on startup to use TLS if it''s set to 0 or null) Switches -z turn on TLS for all binds. (not for setting up of rep agreements though!) If ldapsearch -ZZZ''s work for you, this ***should*** aswell (not tested very much :) ) -p prompt for ROOT_DN password -c /path/to/config.conf specify an alternate config file (for rep''ing other BASE_DN''s) -d this will dump all the rep objects/agreements from each server to the terminal Let me know how it works for you guys.
