Hi Rich, thanks for the reply. Running this on RHEL 5.7. Versions of all the 389 stuff I'm using are:

389-ds-base-1.2.5-1.el5 389-dsgw-1.1.4-1.el5 389-ds-1.1.3-6.el5 389-adminutil-1.1.8-4.el5 389-admin-1.1.10-1.el5 389-admin-console-1.1.4-3.el5 389-admin-console-doc-1.1.4-3.el5 389-console-1.1.3-6.el5 389-ds-console-1.2.0-5.el5 389-ds-console-doc-1.2.0-5.el5

How I built a new ldap instance is I built an admin instance first using the script /usr/sbin/setup-ds-admin.pl http://setup-ds-admin.pl

Then I created a user instance,

Why? You don't need a "user" instance in many cases.

by opening the 389 admin console.

* Right Click on "Server Group" and select "Create Instance Of" ->
  "389 Directory Server"
      o Fill in the following Values
            + Server Identifier: <ENV>
            + Network Port: 389
            + Base DN: dc=cyberdyne dc=com
            + Directory Manager DN: cn=Directory Manager
            + Directory Manager Password: ****
            + Confirm Password: *****
            + Server Runtime (UNIX) user ID: nobody
      o Click "OK"

So then I had my user instance running, with nothing in it, default schema. Now after that set, this is where I've tried various things, from copying over the schema directory

Why? I don't think your problem has anything to do with schema - is there something that makes you think it has something to do with schema?

from my good working ldap server to my new one and then trying to setup replicaiton through the 389 admin client.

Did you follow the directions here - http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Directory_Server/8.2/html-single/A...

I would get the "replica="unknown": Unable to acquire replica: error: no such replica" error that way. I also tried without copying the schema over, got the error that way as well. Also got the error trying to initialize the new one from the old one in the 389 client. Note that I did setup replication users on both nodes as well as was trying to use those users for the replication.

Seems like I'm missing a step in building this new node. Any help would be great. I do realize we are using an older version of the 389. We did run into an issue last time we upgraded versions. The user instance of ldap wouldn't start under the new version, so due to some constraints we had to roll back the version and have not been able to roll forward again.

Would appreciate more information about why the directory server wouldn't start. It's a lot harder to support an old version.

Hopefully someone can help me out.  I'm trying to build a new
ldap server and replicate the data from one of my current nodes.

If somebody can direct me to a howto on this that would be
great.  Right now I've built the new ldap server, but when i
setup the replication using either the 389 client or a perl
script I keep getting replica errors.  Any ideas, something
simple I'm missing?  Error logs below.

What is your platform and version?   Note that you are using a
quite old version of 389 - I suggest upgrading to the latest
stable which is 389-ds-base-1.2.9.9

Also, can you provide exactly what steps you have followed so far
to set up replication?
