Howard Chu commented on DIRSERVER-1651:
---------------------------------------


"rid=<replicaId>,csn=<Csn value>" (update) while apacheDS is using NULL for
the initial state and the structure"<replicaId>;<Csn value>" for the update
state. in the RFC its said:
indicates a request for initial content.....

Note that if you don't send <replicaId> in your initial query, the provider 
cannot possibly know what replicaId to use in the first cookie it sends back 
to you.

There's a desire to ensure that a cookie unambiguously defines a specific 
provider-consumer relationship, and that a given cookie cannot be used with a 
different provider or a different consumer. (In practice this doesn't matter 
at all to the replication protocol, but keeping replicaIDs straight aids in 
debugging when you're looking at hex dumps of packet traces.)

> Tthere is an incompatibility between the RFC 4533 implementation of apacheDS 
> and openldap.
> openldap uses the cookie structure "rid=<replicaId>" (initial) or 
> "rid=<replicaId>,csn=<Csn value>" (update) while apacheDS is using NULL for 
> the initial state and the structure "<replicaId>;<Csn value>" for the update 
> state. in the RFC its said:
> {quote}
> The absence of a cookie or an initialized synchronization state in a cookie 
> indicates a request for initial content.....
> {quote}
> first is apacheDS like, second is openldap like
> It should be possible to adapt the structure or the behavior.
