We found that we get a "No such object" error from the translucent overlay when we do a search like this:
ldapsearch -x -H ldaps://localhost -LLL \
-b "cn=John Doe,ou=Users,dc=example,dc=com" -s base \ -D "cn=admin,dc=example,dc=com" -w admin \ '(&)'
if there is no entry for "cn=John Doe,ou=Users,dc=example,dc=com" in the local database, whether or not the remote entry exists. It seems like a mistake for the translucent overlay to report an error if the remote entry exists, since it only means that we haven’t added any local attributes yet. Is there a way to suppress the error result when the proxied server returns an entry, so we don’t have to hack around this weirdness in our client?
Re-read the slapo-translucent manpage, check your local/remote configuration. The overlay won't query the remote server if you've only specified translucent_local attributes.
