If I explicitly remove all object classes of an entry by value and re-add some of them the modify requests fail with "Type or value exists: modify/add: objectClass: value #1 already exists"

Unfortunately I cannot provide a simple example for showing this. Specific configuration and data upon request since it's private data which MUST NOT be disclosed.

I could not reproduce it. Probably, the best way to proceed is:

1) write down the objectClass values before and after the attempted modifications 2) classify them as ABSTRACT, STRUCTURAL, AUXILIARY 3) indicate any inheritance relationship 4) send the outcome of (2) and (3) after mangling the objectClass names as required.

This should allow you (and others) to try to reproduce the issue without the need to disclose your info.
