syncrepl with aliased objects

[Dieter KlÃnter <dieter@dkluenter.de>]

Hi,
I'm trying to set up a backup server as syncrepl consumer and face some 
strange replication behaviour with aliased objects. Consumer and provider are 
openldap-2.4.2alpha, consumer is in refreshAndPersist mode.
When creating a user object and an aliased object on the provider, only the 
user object is being replicated, but not the aliased object. only if if the 
consumer is restarted, the aliased object is being replicated.

Following is a consumer log after a restart, the user object cn=Joe Smith is 
found, and now the aliased object cn=Smith Joe is added.
How can this be solved?
