Description Stefan Metzmacher 2016-10-30 22:53:21 UTC
Incoming replicated object are missing an explicit rdn attribute,
so the receiving server needs to generate the attribute, using
the dn and name attribute.

The following commit was meant to fix that:

commit 374a01119dac8d1b04f8d43caf6e119be654e2dc
Author: Andrew Bartlett <abartlet@samba.org>

    dsdb: Fix rename and RDN handling for replPropertyMetaData
    
    This matches Windows 2012R2, which both has the RDN not sorted last and has it updated with the local
    invocation_id and a local version.
    
    The RDN attribute, unlike name, is not replicated over DRS, so the impact for interopability extends only to
    the incorrect RDN values that we were finding with dbcheck (values that did not match the name values).
    
    Finally, we always force the RDN to match the name attribute, which avoids issues
    in dbcheck where these diverge.  As such, we can finally remove dbcheck as a
    flapping test, last re-added in e4bab3a8282d263eb2391bc7e8a6fd64ae068935

But it uses the raw RDN attribute name from the dn.

For CN=Users,DC=example,DC=com it will
add "CN: Users", but it should normalize the name
via the schema and add 'cn: Users' instead.

We'll need a code change and some dbcheck magic to fix broken databases.

Thanks!

This looks like a very reasonable way to fix that.

Work in progress patches including dbcheck support (untested!)

For now use "Part1 patch for master" on production systems to avoid
the problem in the first place.

Is the primary issue here the lack of tests for the dbcheck work, or is this otherwise still a WIP?

I may be able to help with dbcheck testing, as I've done a fair bit of that recently.

It's work in progress it misses this:

TODO: we should do this fix up after a possible rename
     via self.err_wrong_dn(), that rename is more important
     and may already fix the problem...
