I tried what you suggested and today, the replication did complete. 

That said, there were a bunch of errors on the initial master, including:

id2entry - str2entry returned NULL for id 12, string="rdn"
_entry_set_tombstone_rdn - Failed to convert DN automountmapname=auto.direct to RDN
(snip - continues for each automountmapname cn entry)

NSMMReplicationPlugin - repl_set_mtn_referrals: could not set referrals for replica dc=sbgrid,dc=org: 20
(repeated several times)

slapd_ldap_sasl_interactive_bind - Error: could not perform interactive bind for id [] mech [GSSAPI]: error 49 (Invalid credentials) (SASL(-13): authentication failure: GSSAPI Failure: gss_accept_sec_context)
slapi_ldap_bind - Error: could not perform interactive bind for id [] mech [GSSAPI]: error 49 (Invalid credentials)
(repeated several times)

NSMMReplicationPlugin - agmt="cn=meTosbgrid-directory-replica.in.hwlab" (sbgrid-directory-replica:389): Replication bind with GSSAPI auth failed: LDAP error 49 (Invalid credentials) (SASL(-13): authentication failure: GSSAPI Failure: gss_accept_sec_context)

And ~ every 5 minutes, I see the familiar-by-now:

slapd_ldap_sasl_interactive_bind - Error: could not perform interactive bind for id [] mech [GSSAPI]: error 49 (Invalid credentials) (SASL(-13): authentication failure: GSSAPI Failure: gss_accept_sec_context)
slapi_ldap_bind - Error: could not perform interactive bind for id [] mech [GSSAPI]: error 49 (Invalid credentials)

The replica reports both masters when I run `ipa-replica-manage list`, but the primary master only lists itself.

Things /appear/ to be working correctly, but none of this is making me feel very confident...

Thanks,
Ian
