When adding a alias abject to the provider, syncprov fowllows the referral and is not updating the alias object to the consumer,

Dieter,

are you talking about aliases or referrals?

I also note that, AFAIK, 2.4.2alpha is way out of sync with HEAD. While a new 2.4 release might be desirable, I suggest you test HEAD instead.

I note that this code has been present in syncprov, unchanged, for quite a long time (throughout 2.3 to current): if ( op->ors_deref & LDAP_DEREF_SEARCHING ) { send_ldap_error( op, rs, LDAP_PROTOCOL_ERROR, "illegal value for derefAliases" ); return rs->sr_err; }

which would prevent syncprov from chasing aliases during a search. As such, I think you need provide a test case that illustrates the problem.
