One example is adding the olcSyncrepl attribute to
olcDatabase={1}hdb,cn=config . Ldapmodify reported success. Ldapsearch shows
the new attribute. syncrepl works.
However, /etc/ldap/slapd.d/cn=config/olcDatabase={1}hdb,cn=config.ldif does
not have an olcSyncrepl attribute. When slapd is restarted, the olcSyncrepl
attribute is missing.
The same thing happened when adding the entry for the syncrepl overlay.
Thank you,
