AEM - Users not synched with User Synchronization using Sling Distribution

I do not see new user info (or updates to user profiles) being synched to/from Publish-Author.

When I create a new user on Publish, I can see that there is a “SimpleDistributionAgent” on Author.. but I cannot find the user in Author(searched entire crx).

I did all the osgi configs as detailed here: https://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/aem/6-2/administer/security/security/sync.html

I do not see any error in the log…

No errors in Author and Publish Sync diagnostics

What am I missing?

User synchronization will not create users on Author. The sync is only between Publishers.

As of AEM 6.1, when user synchronization is enabled, user data is automatically synchronized across the publish instances in the farm and are not created on author.

https://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/aem/6-2/administer/security/security/sync.html

With the above setup, i started up 2 publish instances (4503, 4504) and when i create or update any user (or profile), the data is synched between both Publish instances.
