OpenLDAP 2.3.27

We have a mesh of servers replicating (with SyncRepl) to each other; they master their own bit of the tree and slave everyone else's, making it hard at times to pick the culprit in case of problems (but I'm stuck with it).

Anyway, I've started seeing these weird errors in the logs, just after start-up:

is_entry_objectclass("", "2.16.840.1.113730.3.2.6") no objectClass attribute is_entry_objectclass("", "2.5.17.0") no objectClass attribute is_entry_objectclass("", "2.5.6.1") no objectClass attribute

Now, I know what the message means, and I know those OIDs are basically internal, but given the DN is null how do I go looking for the problem?

That's harmless. I think it was fixed in HEAD but likely not ported to re23. Basically, when the suffix entry is "", a dummy Entry structure is used, which has no attributes and thus no objectClass attribute. Those checks should be skipped but they're not, but the main drawback is that few cycles are wasted.
