Hi, while in progress of adding further monitoring capabilities to the back-ldap backend I stumbled over a weirdness in how the monitor handles the COMPARE operation: If a compare request is issued, the entry is retrieved directly from the monitor cache, triggering no updates, thus the outcome of that comparison is based on outdated or default information (depends on when an update was last triggered).
As a minimum example, having a fresh instance of cn=monitor (that you have not searched since startup) compare the monitoredInfo attribute of cn=Uptime,cn=Time,cn=monitor to "0", you should get LDAP_COMPARE_TRUE.
I've been forced to make a small change to the back-monitor subsystem API locally (will upload the patch shortly), so I could fix this too now that I've become familiar with the code a bit.
