OUD replicating out to instance in DMZ and account locks

Hi,

this is on OUD 12.2.1.3.200623

We are trying to have an OUD instance in a DMZ that gets replicated data from an instance on the intranet. One specific concern is that it should not be possible to brute-force/crawl all users on the DMZ instance, try random passwords a couple of times for each, and by that lock all the accounts on the intranet. With ODSEE you would just have made the instance in the DMZ a consumer and that would have been it.

With OUD you can set the writability on the DMZ instance to internal-only. But given how a BIND is a kind of a read request that also sets some internal-only attributes depending on the password policy, that alone doesn't do the trick, and you also have to set the replication server that the DMZ instance talks to to untrusted.

Howdy, Stranger!
