Fedora directory users - Jul 2007 - Configuration Directory Question

Hi,I''ve got a what I thought was a relatively simple DS setup with two
master DS servers doing master-master replication. In the future slaves may be
added into the equation.Initially I installed both servers the same - as
standalone DS'' each with it''s own admin server and
''in-house'' o=NetscapeRoot configuration directory.Reading some
of the Redhat docs on ''Configuration decisions'' it talks about
having the configuration directory in a separate directory instance - based on
what I''ve seen from the DS setup script this implies supplying those
details during the install of the real DS instances that will contain the
data.Is my understanding correct? Does this mean I should be installing an
independent configuration directory on both masters and setup replication
between them to provide a redundant configuration directory alongside the
redundant data directories?If so is the install procedure reasonable?: - install
fedora RPM on server 1 - Run setup script to create server 1 config directory -
Run ds_newinst.pl to create data directory on the same server pointing it to the
local config directory during setup - Repeat on server 2 - Setup replication on
data masters and on config directoriesMany thanks!

For small deployments, you can have your config DS and data DS be the
same.
