Hi Rich, Thank you for your previous response..The answer was actually embedded within your statement I believe. "This is a problem in general with some older clients that do not know how to properly follow LDAPv3 referrals" I used the mozldap ldapmodify tool and it worked to update entries that I point at the consumer. I would have never guessed the openldap tool would not follow LDAPv3 referrals. Maybe a switch I missed or something. Thanks again for your suggestion.

This is a problem in general with some older clients that do not know how to properly follow LDAPv3 referrals (err=10 is a referral). What is the client?
