I was expecting to have this problem when I set up syncrepl here
recently, using the RHEL5 openldap 2.3 builds, but it "just worked."
I do get cert mismatch errors from the command line clients.
I only get this error as there is only one "server" externally, but
the traffic is internally spread to several servers for redundancy,
via a hw content switch.
So the servers have a mild identity chrisis due to end users and
syncrepl using the same ip but having conflicting or apparently
different server names.
I think there a several options available given the suggestions made,
much appreciated guys.
Cheers
Brett
