Hi Timo, Thanks for the info. I've upgraded to v2.2.7 and made the change. Now I get:
Nov 5 11:00:00 server1 dovecot: dsync-server(mark): Error: Couldn't lock /home/mark/.dovecot-sync.lock: Timed out after 30 seconds Nov 5 11:00:02 server1 dovecot: dsync-local(mark): Error: Couldn't lock /home/mark/.dovecot-sync.lock: Timed out after 30 seconds Also, I get a lot of errors about Dovecot trying to replicate mailboxes for (system) users that don't have them. Is there any way to exclude users from replication? -Mark On 3 November 2013 21:23, Timo Sirainen <t...@iki.fi> wrote: > 1) Upgrade to v2.2.7 > > 2) Use: > > mail_replica = tcp:server2.mydomain.com > > On 3.11.2013, at 21.53, IT geek 31 <itgee...@googlemail.com> wrote: > > > Hi Timo, > > > > Thanks for your response. > > > > Getting it to replicate over TCP is what I'm after.
