I could try that sudoers and groups, but what about the attributes (like uidNumber and gidNumber) on the individual users that are in the replicated suffix?

Looks like you're out of luck. Please file an enhancement request at https://fedorahosted.org/389

    I would like to protect certain entries in a hub 389-ds host from

    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.

    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.

    Is there no easy answer to this without giving up the ability to
    manage some things locally on 389-B?

    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.
