server 1.4.3 64-bit, master-slave configuration
Description
Documentation page that needs enhancement is http://www.mongodb.org/display/DOCS/Master+Slave
It specifies that copying a slave to another location and starting it up is sufficient to clone one. However, the startup of the new slave can throw some odd errors like seen here: http://pastie.org/997057
The fix for that specific error is to remove any IP port information from the command line or from an included mongodb configuration file. The source should be specified as a naked IP without port details.
