<br>
To keep duty separation intact, we've set up a scenario where
we've got one group managing Active Directory and one 389 server
(389-A), and another group maintaining a 389 hub (389-B). 389-A
syncs from AD one-way, and then replicates to 389-B. However,
things like sudoers and posix attributes (uids and gids) are
managed on 389-B for convenience. Unfortunately, the sudoers OU
and uids/gids get destroyed if 389-A performs a re-initialization
of the agreement--by design I'm sure.<br>
<br>
Is there a way to protect the sudoers OU and specific attributes
of users on 389-B in this scenario? It looks like my options are
to mess with fractional replication, ACIs, to meticulously back-up
these attributes and restore them in the rare event we need to
re-initialize, or to give up the convenience and have those
attributes managed on 389-A. <br>
<br>
Is there no easy answer to this without giving up the ability to
manage some things locally on 389-B?<br>

Can you separate the data by suffix? The unit of replication is a
database, so if you can create a sub-suffix in its own database, you
could replicate that separately.<br>
