Re: Openldap 2.4.44 syncprov delays



Quanah,

  The config and data are not something I can release to you in their current configuration.  Since this has not been seen before, I’ll do more digging and do my utmost to reproduce the failure with a configuration and data that I can share.

  Before I go a lot further - of the changes to syncprov that happened in 2.4.43 and 2.4.44 is any more likely than the others to be at the root of this issue?
