Hi Andy,
Active/Passive mode is not really a PacketFence mode per se.

What it is is two PacketFence servers configured as if they each were 
standalone.
You need to set-up some kind of replication for the configuration (a cron job 
with rsync can do) and configure either heartbeat or pacemaker to start/stop 
services on each server when the other one fails.

It is a larger job than I feel I can document in a email, but nothing 
extraordinary if you have already used linux clustering tools such as 
heartbeat, corosync and pacemaker.

Regards,
