Previously on my FC13 installation (openldap-servers-2.4.21-11) the main slapd process used an X509 "server" while my syncrepl processes were using the /etc/openldap/ldap.conf client configuration file in order to connect to my LDAPs Syncrepl providers.
In my new RHEL6 setup (openldap-servers-2.4.23-15.el6.x86_64) is linked to MozNSS and Syncrepl can't connect to my LDAPs providers anymore because it complains about the TLS context not beeing intitialized correctly (the server's certificate isn't accepted as a client certificate).
Here is the lightly obfuscated log:

And my /etc/openldap/ldap.conf:

Here is the obfuscated certificate:

I think this ITS is superseded by http://www.openldap.org/its/index.cgi?findid=7001 and http://www.openldap.org/its/index.cgi?findid=7002
Note that even with openldap built with openssl (ol 2.4.latest and openssl 1.0.x), the syncrepl tls context is inherited from the main server context, and the server cert is sent as the client cert. If the server sets TLSVerifyClient to never or allow, syncrepl will work, because the server will ignore the problems with the client cert. But if TLSVerifyClient is set to "try", "demand", or "hard", syncrepl will fail because the server always sends the server cert as the client cert, and since the server cert cannot also be used as a client cert, the server will correctly reject it.
