What happens if one of the consuming LDAP servers is then itself queried for an attribute that hasn't been synced? So, for example, if a system in a data centre connects to a local consuming LDAP server and asks for a jpegPhoto, that won't be on the local server, so what happens then?
Might be easiest to use an ACL to drop the attributes you don't want it to replicate for the replication DN for those consumers. As for what happens when a client requests jpegPhoto and it doesn't exist, the same thing that happens for any client that requests an attribute that doesn't exist -- It won't get a result that includes that attribute.
