I'm having another replication problem where changes made on a particular 
server are not being replicated outward at all. Right now, I'm trying to 
determine what's going on during the replication process.

(Caveat: I'm still running an old version of 389ds: v1.3.10. In particular, the 
dsconf utility does not exist.)

My understanding is that when a server receives a change from a client, it 
wraps it up as a CSN and starts a replication session with its peers, during 
which it sends a message that states the greatest CSN that it originated. First 
off, is that a correct understanding?

If so, how can I determine what CSN a particular server is telling its 
replication peers during those sessions? I have a feeling that this server is, 
for some reason, sending an inaccurate number.

In the cn=replica,cn=...,cn=mapping tree,cn=config tree, there are entries for 
each of the servers topology peers, and they contain nsds50ruv attributes that 
seem to be the RUVs that that server has received from those peers, right? But 
the nsds50ruv attribute also exists directly in the cn=replica if you 
explicitly ask for it. Is it possible that this is the server's own RUV?

Can I rely on the nsds50ruv attributes on this server's peers'  cn=replica 
nsds50ruv attribute values to be an accurate reflection of what this server is 
sending as its CSN in replication sessions?

Any other way to see what's going on in a replication session? (I'm even trying 
to decrypt a network capture, but I'm not having any luck with that yet.)

In particular, I see the max CSN for this server in all of these RUVs less than 
CSNs recorded in the server's own log files.
