The setup I described above is a multimaster replication scenario, even though it is only in use on a single server. The two databases are both masters. To have them on separate machinse, you'd just have to edit the connection info in the db table insert statements, as long as access was squared away. The bucardo server can be on another machine entirely. All it needs is access to the replicated databases and it's own postgres database, which can also be on an entirely different server. Best of luck! Hi Jonathan. The setup I described above is a multimaster replication scenario, even though it is only in use on a single server. The two databases are both masters.

The bucardo server can be on another machine entirely. All it needs is access to the replicated databases and it’s own postgres database, which can also be on an entirely different server.

Best of luck!

There seem to be multiple bugs for bucardo_ctl installation in the bucardo bugzilla. I commented on this one a week or two ago: http://bucardo.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1 I'm using postgres 8.4, so maybe that is the problem. Thanks for the comment!

You *should* be able to do all this through bucardo_ctl pretty easily, but if there are problems, bucardo-general@bucardo.org or the Bucardo bug tracker (http://bucardo.org/bugzilla/) would love to hear about them. And, of course, if you've already reported them, many thanks :) Could you describe some of the problems you had with bucardo_ctl?
