Reading about synchronous replication in a paper copy of .pdf high-availability.sgml pages, I
missed the information in config.sgml. There /is/ a (single) link, but it's not visible in the
pdf; even with the pdf on-screen it is only noticable only with MouseOver.

I think it would be good to make two explicit, visible links, as attached, to connect the two main
places with sync-repl information. Then there will be a clear "See Section ..." reference.

(against today's REL9_1_STABLE)

thanks,

Erik Rijkers
