I'm not using a 'filter' configuration in my olcSyncrepl configuration that might exclude this particular object, and I've checked that the binddn I'm using has permission to see this object all the attributes of the object that isn't replicating.

Any tips on how to further debug this?access rules? corrupted file system? corrupted database? Dieter
I've checked access rules on the producer, and the account the consumer is replicating with has access to the object in question. I've confirmed the object doesn't exist on the consumer by reviewing the "slapcat" output, it's not access rules preventing me seeing the object.
I hope I've avoided a corrupted file system or corrupted database, as I"m seeing the same problem across multiple consumer VMs. At the same time some older VMs (running Debian Squeeze, and slapd 2.4.23-7.3) are not having this problem, which I think rules out corrupted filesystem or database on the producer.
This information supports Quannah's observation that the problem is probably the syncrepl bugs in 2.4.31.
I'm going to upgrade my consumer to the 2.4.40 backport that is now available in Debian Wheezy, and see if the problem goes away (and probably upgrade my producer likewise in my next maintenance window).
