Hi,
I have an elog server running on a linux desktop machine inside our institutional firewall. It can be accessed from inside the firewall directly using http, but users from outside have to use https, with apache (and its ssl module) controlling the access.
I also set up another server on my laptop, just for backup purposes, and synchronized it inside the firewall (using a direct http connection). No problems there!
Now we want to have several servers set up (in different institutions), and have them synchronized automatically. For this I installed elog on a mac server (in another institution, so outside our firewall), also accessible only through https (again using apache).
I configured all the required mirror settings, but always get an error: "Remote server is not an ELOG server".
I've tried changing the status of the 2 machines (server-client), but get the same error...
I also tried different approaches for the Mirror server parameter, like
https://the.remote.server
https://the.remote.server:443
http://the.remote.server:443
but no luck...
Running elog with the -D flag off issued this message:

The servers have user level passwords, and I'm mirroring with Mirror user parameter set to the administrator...
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance
