I solved this today ... with the help of a colleague.  My problem was that 
this installation was on a Kubuntu machine which has no root password by 
default.  Just users added into the admin group.  So I had to set a root 
password, and then the slave installation worked perfectly.  

I'm totally impressed with this master / slave setup of kolab.  Great 
appreciation to the developers, and contributors.

I did however,  find that particular message a little misleading.  Maybe it 
should be changed to specify the master server system root account?  When 
it's in the middle of the kolab bootstrap, and refers to the master I assumed 
it was referring to the master kolab, and not the root account on the system.

I attached a patch against the CVS source for the bootstrap script if you are 
interested in applying it.


Thanks,


Andy
