Replying to myself:
It does appear replication does not like dealing with a rootless
provider. One idea which I thought might be possible would be to have a
rootless provider and have multiple syncrepls on the consumer for each
of the trees, with the specific searchbase set:
o=foo
o=bar
o=baz
however this still doesn't work.
If a root is specified in the provider, the consumer and within the
syncrepl everything works great!
Is the rootless replication something which is intended or are there
technical issues with implementing this?
