I've only ever been able to find the hash value in the log. If it's in _active_tasks where is it? My replication entries in _active_tasks look like ba3959: http://myserver.example:5984/mydb/ -> mydb And I don't believe ba3959 is long enough. Isn't the hash an MD5 of the replication information? If there was a way to get it out of _active_tasks it would be extremely convenient. Sophos Limited, The Pentagon, Abingdon Science Park, Abingdon, OX14 3YP, United Kingdom. Company Reg No 2096520.
