LDAP master+slave - strange behavour

[Alexei Monastyrnyi <alexeim@orcsoftware.com>]

Hi List.

I'm running two Solaris 9 boxes with OpenLDAP servers 2.2.15 on board.

Seems like there is a sort of misbehavior of slave server.
As documentation states, it should act like this. 
(http://www.openldap.org/doc/admin22/replication.html)

*Sample replication scenario:*

  1. The LDAP client submits an LDAP modify operation to the slave slapd.
  2. The slave slapd returns a referral to the LDAP client referring
     the client to the master slapd.
  3. The LDAP client submits the LDAP modify operation to the master
     slapd.
  4. The master slapd performs the modify operation, writes out the
     change to its replication log file and returns a success code to
     the client.
  5. The slurpd process notices that a new entry has been appended to
     the replication log file, reads the replication log entry, and
     sends the change to the slave slapd via LDAP.
  6. The slave slapd performs the modify operation and returns a
     success code to the slurpd process.


But it does not.
My slave server allows modify/delete of LDAP entries via 
ldapmodify/ldapdelete utilities, and sends strange error message when 
trying to use ldapadd.

alien:alexeim> ldapadd -c -h ldap2.orcsoftware.com -D 
"cn=manager,dc=orcsoftware,dc=com" -W -f /tmp/cat35
48.ldif
Enter LDAP Password:
adding new entry "cn=cat3548,ou=Hosts,dc=orcsoftware,dc=com"
ldap_add: Internal (implementation specific) error (80)
       additional info: no structuralObjectClass operational attribute

I want to say that it does not try to use referral as it should. So 
master server becomes unaware of what slave does.
The slave server does accept add/mod/del operation from the master. That 
is OK.

The servers have almost equal configs, except master/slave parts. Both 
of them use the same schema files.

Master server ldap.orcsoftware.com has

replica host=ldap2.orcsoftware.com:389 bindmethod=simple 
binddn="cn=Manager,dc=orcsoftware,dc=com" credentials=<mamager_passwd>
replogfile /usr/local/var/openldap-slurp/replication.log


Slave server ldap2.orcsoftware.com has

updatedn        "cn=Manager,dc=orcsoftware,dc=com
updateref       ldap://ldap.orcsoftware.com

cachesize 2000


Maybe someone will point out where I'm wrong?

Thanks,
Alexei.
