[Bucardo-general] Add Sync Error

[Ed Snajder]

Hello Bucardo General!

I am hitting an error on a bucardo add sync that I am hoping you can help with. 
I am running 4.99.4 on a dedicated VM with Postgres 9.1. I set up a test replication sync between two other VMs, and everything worked great. 
I set up a new sync, this one between an EC2 instance, connecting over an SSH tunnel, and a 'local' VM. I was able to add the DBs, validate the connection strings, create the herd and dbgroup, but when I "bucardo add sync" I get the following error:

$ bucardo add sync ec2pk herd=testherd dbs=ec2pk

my ssh tunnel was pretty straightforward (ssh -f me at ec2host -N -L 5435:ec2host:5432 ), and I didn't have a problem connecting to the DB via psql, I copied it right out of the connection in "bucardo list db" and logged right in. 

This doesn't seem like a bucardo problem as much as it is a connectivity one, but perhaps someone has encountered this before? 

Let me know if I can provide any additional information. 
Thanks in advance for any insight!
