Hello.

I've taken over a large 389-ds environment running on Oracle Linux 8 and the 
first task I need to complete is to enable password lockouts.



I was able to enable password lockouts successfully however it only works if 
the client is pointed directly to a master. The account locks out and the 
attributes are propagated down to the hubs and consumers.

If the client is pointed to a read-only hub or consumer then the account does 
not lockout and the password attributes do not propagate back to the masters.

passwordIsGlobalPolicy: on is set on all masters, hubs and consumers

Password policy attributes I expect to replicate:

passwordRetryCount
accountUnlockTime
retryCountResetTime

I've tried following the chaining guide below which I think is what I need to 
do to get this work as expected, however I've hit a snag.

https://directory.fedoraproject.org/docs/389ds/howto/howto-chainonupdate.html
389 Directory Server - 
Howto:ChainOnUpdate<https://directory.fedoraproject.org/docs/389ds/howto/howto-chainonupdate.html>
Introduction. The usual deployment for a large replication topology will have 
the client applications reading from hubs or dedicated consumers in order to 
spread out the load and off-load search request processing from the masters.
directory.fedoraproject.org
The document states the backend must be added to the hub or consumer, however 
when I try and add the following LDIF to the hub I get the "unwilling to 
perform" error.

This makes sense because the hub is read-only so I'm confused as how I can 
update the config on a read-only hub or consumer?

dn: cn=chainlab,cn=chaining database,cn=plugins,cn=config
objectclass: top
objectclass: extensibleObject
objectclass: nsBackendInstance
cn: chainlab
nsslapd-suffix: dc=domain,dc=com
nsfarmserverurl: ldap://dsa1.domain.com:389 ldap://dsa2.domain.com:389 
ldap://dsa3.domain.com:389
nsmultiplexorbinddn: uid=repluser,cn=config
nsmultiplexorcredentials: mypassword
nsCheckLocalACI: on

adding new entry "cn=chainlab,cn=chaining database,cn=plugins,cn=config"
ldap_add: Server is unwilling to perform (53)
Hub or Consumer

Step 1 (Hub and Consumer): the chaining backend must be created on the hub and 
consumer:

dn: cn=chainbe1,cn=chaining database,cn=plugins,cn=config
objectclass: top
objectclass: extensibleObject
objectclass: nsBackendInstance
cn: chainbe1
nsslapd-suffix: <suffix to replicate>
nsfarmserverurl: ldap://supplier1:port supplier2:port ... supplierN:port/ # 
also, ldaps can be used instead
                                                                          # of 
ldap for secure connections -
                                                                          # 
requires the secure port
nsmultiplexorbinddn: cn=Replication Manager,cn=config # or whatever the replica 
bind DN is on the supplier
nsmultiplexorcredentials: password
nsCheckLocalACI: on

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
