hi cary

you can login to secondary master using admin console be changing in  3 different places

1. /opt/fedora-ds/admin-serv/config/adm.conf
2. /opt/fedora-ds/shared/config/dbswitch.conf

edit an entry under the configuration directory server under the suffice 0=netscaperoot

The entry can be found by first doing the following ldapsearch:

#ldapsearch -x -b o=netscaperoot -D "cn=Directory Manager" -w password "nsDirectoryURL=*"

It would return similar to below

dn: cn=UserDirectory, ou=Global Preferences, ou=localdomain, o=NetscapeRoot

Copy the above dn: and create an ldif file with below contents

dn: cn=UserDirectory, ou=Global Preferences, ou=localdomain, o=NetscapeRoot //Comment, Replace this line with your result of ldapsearch query
changetype: modify
replace: nsDirectoryURL
nsDirectoryURL: ldap://<secondary-master-ip/hostname/fqdn/>:port/suffix

You can refer the below link

Restart the admin console
#/opt/fedora-ds/stop-admin
#/opt/fedora-ds/start-admin

Then you can login to secondary master using adminconsole.

Satish,

I installed the second ldap master on server2.  I also created a
netscapeRoot database on server2 in order to replicate it from the
master on server1.

I did not create an instance from the console.

Cary,
        Where is the second master? Same machine? How did you create the
2nd
Master? Did you 'create an instance' from the console?
