After I added the correct updatedn setting, I got the error:
tag=103 err=53 text=shadow context; no update referral
This should never happen unless a client of your consumer is trying to update the consumer's DB. Which it can't, since its server is a consumer (slave). Therefore you have to have a mechanism that tells the consumer where to go for updates, a referral mechanism. By configuring the consumer for "chaining" this can be done (my site does it), but it's not always immediately obvious from the docs how to get this working (took me a long time, anyhow, trying different alternatives, whereof one - and only one - finally worked). I'm totally dependent on chaining on one of my 3 consumers.
I believe the replication proxy back-ldap database (for push-mode syncrepl) connects as a client to the consumer. It seems this triggers a requirement for an updateref, even when the proxy is binding as the updatedn to perform replication updates.
No. If the Bind with updateDN was successful this error will never appear.
