Yes. But since syncrepl works with search requests one could try to map 
things with slapo-rwm. But note that it can get tricky. I didn't try 
that my self.

Maybe it would be easier to consolidate name spaces. You could also 
replicate the original name space and then map search requests at your 
local server to the name spaces wanted.

Ciao, Michael.
