I was looking at that but it felt a little chicken and egg. I need a 
config in place that defines a rewrite rule that then provides the 
config? How would you lay this out?

Syncrepl the cn=config_slave database locally to a slave and then have a 
database relay setup to rwm-suffixmassage ontop of the cn=config 
namespace? Would that work?

Thanks,
