[Csync2] csync2 cannot reach each other using second NIC

[Nils Stöckmann]

Hi!

I have problems running csync2-1.34 on a second NIC.

First of all, I have it running via xinted:

netstat -vaept | grep -e csync
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address           Foreign Address        
State       User       Inode       PID/Pro
tcp        0      0 *:csync2                *:*                    
LISTEN      root       8150        853/xinetd

Connecting WORKSif I leave out the connection identifier in csync2.cfg.
Connection works too, if I change the /etc/hosts file in a way, that the
host names are ....-eth1. In this case, however, i have severe problems
with other services and also csync2 produces a identification error,
most probably because the certificates are not given out to
"<hostname>-eth1".

/etc/csync2.cfg:
> nossl leihnix*h* leihnix*h*;
>
> group cfg_sync-etc {
>         host leihnix6h1 at leihnix6h1-eth1;
>         host leihnix5h1 at leihnix5h1-eth1;
>         key     /etc/csync2/cfg_sync-etc.key;
>
>
>         include /etc/;
>
>         exclude /etc/.hg/;
>         (........long list.....)

ifconfig:
> root at leihnix6h1:/etc# ifconfig | grep -e \\.1 -e eth
> eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:0c:6e:ff:a2:7b

> eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:25:22:db:e7:84

>           inet addr:172.31.1.11  Bcast:0.0.0.0  Mask:255.255.255.0

hosts file: (identical on both; Same result if i leave out the private
172.31.1.0/24 IPs.)
--------------------
172.31.1.16     leihnix6h1
172.31.1.11     leihnix5h1
127.0.0.1       localhost
192.168.1.11    leihnix5h1
192.168.1.16    leihnix6h1
----------------------


Csync2 produces the following error:
> SQL: SELECT peername FROM dirty GROUP BY peername ORDER BY random()
> SQL Query finished.
> SQL: SELECT filename, myname, force FROM dirty WHERE peername =
> 'leihnix5h1-eth1' ORDER by filename ASC
> SQL Query finished.
> Connecting to host leihnix5h1-eth1 (PLAIN) ...
> Can't resolve peername.
> ERROR: Connection to remote host failed.
> Host stays in dirty state. Try again later...
> SQL: SELECT command, logfile FROM action GROUP BY command, logfile
> SQL Query finished.
> SQL: COMMIT TRANSACTION
> Finished with 1 errors.
> root at leihnix6h1:/etc#


Why doesn't the way described in the csync2 paper work?

It'd be really nice if some of you could help me out here.

Best regards
