Hello,

thank you for the suggestion.
I was doing that with the 2.3.x line to always have the current version 
on our servers, but it was time consuming. Somehow, I felt the need to 
make my job easier. guess I'll start over the good practices :-)

in the 2.4.24 changelog, there is:
	Fixed slapd syncrepl refresh to use complete cookie (ITS#6807)
which seems interesting

I'll try the newer version next monday to see if it fixes the issue. 
time to go home :-)
