So I have a primary domain, that works.
Then during install of the second site I use the 5.0 ISO , I select " REPLICA DIRECTORY NODE", go through the setup and the Backup binds to the primary successfully
I see the link, between the two servers & if i go into teh APP center at either end i can see the sites for installation
so basically at the “remote site” :
- set the client DNS server to the REPLICA, so it can find the services
and if i issue a “DIG” against the DNS I see it is resolving correctly, to both the Primary site & the replica.
However if I try to BIND the client to the domain via the REPLICA site, it cannot work.
- Do i have to load any AD software onto the replica?
- Do I need to install “Active Directory Compatible Domain Controller” onto the “REPLICA DIRECTORY NODE”?
This would be to allow the clients can authenticate to this server , if the primary is off line
& the NAS can access the READ-ONLY LDAP records locally?
