Additional Information: Crash is occurring when just a member has been removed from ADS and then a DS update is initiated. If a group member is removed from the DS console and an update initiated, it is never updated in ADS. Another revelation: This is only occurring if the group is defined in ADS as a Distribution Group. If the group is a security group, membership changes are updated correctly. Found this information: * Security: Security groups allow you to manage user and computer access to shared resources. You can also control who receives group policy settings. This simplifies administration by allowing you to set permissions once on multiple computers, then to change the membership of the group as your needs change. The change in group membership automatically takes effect everywhere. You can also use these groups as email distribution lists. * Distribution: Distribution groups are intended to be used solely as email distribution lists. These lists are for use with email applications such as Microsoft Exchange or Outlook. You can add and remove contacts from the list so that they will or will not receive email sent to the distribution group. You can't use distribution groups to assign permissions on any objects, and you can't use them to filter group policy settings. This is also occuring trying to sync nested groups: Parent Group - Security Group - Domain Local Child Group - Security Group - Global Created attachment 329993 [details]

Fix Description: I broke this with my earlier fix about sending mods to AD. There are calls which reset the raw entry from AD before the call to mod_already_made. The fix is to only retrieve the raw entry just before we use it, after it may have been reset. I also found a memory leak in the mod init with valueset function I added for the prior fix.
Platforms tested: RHEL5
