Hi,

I understand that I'll lose users that are cn=Staff_Admins,dc=etc

So the Q is why I am losing users in the --win-subtree cn=VUW_Staff,dc= etc




This I dont understand....

I have the -v already, anyway to make it very verbose?

http://port389.org/wiki/FAQ#Troubleshooting
Use the replication log level  8192
I'd like to see the directory server errors log /var/log/dirsrv/slapd-DOMAIN/errors when winsync deletes entries under the --win-subtree cn=VUW_Staff,dc= etc

Hi,

The first time missed the --win-subtree settings so I wiped the admins in the IPA admin group and users as they were not in cn=users as per the bug.  The second time as far as I can tell I specified the correct cn via win-subtree flag but I still appear to have lost the users in IPA.....now I expected to lose the admins but the loss of users as well confounds me.

I did a ldapsearch as per checking and its seems to be saying the right folder/ou/cn but IPA is empty.

Hence I was wondering if there was a log recording what the update was doing so I could try and figure out the mistake.  Ive tried greping cant find any indication.

I will re-try with -v, verbose.

It is not clear from the manuals, but no matter what -win-subtree you specify, winsync will search AD starting from the dc=domain suffix.  So, for example, if you have
cn=mystaff,cn=staff,dc=example,dc=com
and you specify
--win-subtree "cn=mystaff,cn=staff,dc=example,dc=com"
winsync will still search starting from dc=example,dc=com and will hit ticket/355<https://fedorahosted.org/389/ticket/355> if there are any users outside of cn=mystaff,cn=staff,dc=example,dc=com that have the same username as a user in IPA.

Hi,

I just tried to do a winsync agreement with specifying the AD point as cn=VUW_Staff,dc=staff,dc=vuw,dc=vuw,dc=ac,dc=nz  as my users are not in the users folder but the VUW_Staff folder (at the same level) and it wiped all IPA users that are also in AD.

Yes, this is what happens with https://fedorahosted.org/389/ticket/355
#355     winsync should not delete entry that appears to be out of scope

While doing the actual update does this get verbosly logged anywhere as opposed to "update in progress" dumped to the screen?  Something went badly wrong, I just dont know what.

You are seeing something different than #355?


:/
