Three things I noticed:

1. Shouldn=92t the _id be =93push_repme=94? This is a push replication from=
 a local source to a remote target.
2. The source can be written more simply as just =93repme=94. I don=92t kno=

is a local database. If the db is internal, CouchDB can access it directly =
instead of having to talk HTTP to it. That might or might not be contributi=
ng to your problem.
3. The target URL says =93server A=94, but in your description above you ca=
ll the remote server =93server B=94. Typo?

Again, I=92m confused because you=92re inconsistent in saying which server =
the replication is running on. A or B?
