Hy Matthew,

I am not sure if this as anything to do with your problem, but there is a "l" missingin your olSyncrepl configuration :)

olcSyncrepl: {0}rid=001 provider=dap://rock.earlham.edu/
binddn="<snip>" bindmethod=simple credentials=<snip>
searchbase="cn=config" type=refreshAndPersist retry="5 5 300
5" timeout=1

should be

olcSyncrepl: {0}rid=001 provider=ldap://rock.earlham.edu/
binddn="<snip>" bindmethod=simple credentials=<snip>
searchbase="cn=config" type=refreshAndPersist retry="5 5 300
5" timeout=1

Cordialement,

Adrien Futschik
