<br></div><div>An invalid command restriction entry got put into the common_secret.pem.pub file. Once I fixed that and copied it's contents to /root/.ssh/authorized_keys on the slave it began working, and the geo-rep satus showed it as "Passive."<div>
<br></div><div>The first line of bad authorized_key entry looked something like:</div><div>command="/usr/libexec/glusterfs/gsyncd" command="/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/glusterfs/gsyncd" ssh-rsa AAAAB3NzaC<br>

<div><br></div><div>That's not working for me. The passive node never starts geo-replicating.
