Description Sankar Ramalingam 2012-11-28 19:37:15 UTC
Description of problem: nsDS5BeginReplicaRefresh attribute accepts any values and it doesn't throw any error messages when the server restarts too. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 389-ds-base-1.2.11.15

How reproducible: Consistently

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create replication agreement with two masters.
2. Run ldapmodify to initialize the replication agreement. Eg:
PORT=1189;/usr/lib64/mozldap/ldapmodify -h 10.65.206.72 -p $PORT -D "cn=Directory Manager" -w Secret123 << EOFdn: cn=WinPassSync,cn=replica,cn="dc=passsync,dc=com",cn=mapping tree,cn=config
changetype: modify
replace: nsDS5BeginReplicaRefresh
nsDS5BeginReplicaRefresh: start
EOF 
3. Once the incremental update started, run an another ldapmodify command to stop the incremental updates. However, this is not the right way disable the replication updates.
PORT=1189;/usr/lib64/mozldap/ldapmodify -h 10.65.206.72 -p $PORT -D "cn=Directory Manager" -w Secret123 << EOFdn: cn=WinPassSync,cn=replica,cn="dc=passsync,dc=com",cn=mapping tree,cn=config
changetype: modify
replace: nsDS5BeginReplicaRefresh
nsDS5BeginReplicaRefresh: junk_value123
EOF 
4. The above ldapmodify completed successfully. No error message observed in the access/error logs even after server restarts.

Actual results: nsDS5BeginReplicaRefresh attribute accepts any value and it doesn't throw any error when server restarts.

Expected results: It should ignore the invlaid values.
