Description

I discovered the following issue in my pfsense 2.4.1 (amd64) high availability configuration.

When I configure an LDAP authentication server for webConfigurator authentication on my master node, the LDAP authentication is not working on the backup node.

I discovered the following reason for the issue.

The master node is syncing the configuration to the backup node, but the backup node does not reload with the new configuration for authentication.

Workaround:
Set the Authentication Server (System / User Manager / Settings) on backup node from LDAP Authentication Server to "Local Database", and back to the LDAP Authentication Server. The LDAP authentication is now working.

The authentication source for the user manager is not a setting that synchronizes as a part of XMLRPC configuration synchronization. You must set that manually on both.
