Are you are using multi-master replication?  It sounds like these
entries you are seeing are replication conflict entries.  You can read
about dealing with them in the Administrator's Guide.  Here is a link to

No, replication is currently not active on these machines...

What happens when you try to delete the entry with ldapdelete?  Also,
did you verify that the entry is indeed a leaf entry with ldapsearch as
"cn=directory manager"?

-NGK

Unfortunately, since I've deleted and recreated the databases, I haven't reproduced this problem.  I will try this the next time it happens, assuming it ever happens again.

Thanks for the quick response.
