> It fails to import the following two entries into ApacheDS 1.0 (default server.xml). 
> The second entry is an alias to the first one, and is directly located below the first entry:
> dn: ou=Singers,dc=example,dc=com
> ou: Singers
> objectclass: top
> objectclass: organizationalUnit
> dn: ou=Songwriters,ou=Singers,dc=example,dc=com
> ou: Songwriters
> objectclass: top
> objectclass: organizationalUnit
> objectclass: alias
> aliasedobjectname: ou=Singers,dc=example,dc=com
> Here is the result I got from an ldapmodify attempt:
> $ ldapmodify -h localhost -p 10389 -D "uid=admin,ou=system" -w ****** -q -c -a -f aliasSingers.ldif
> ldap_add: Unknown error
> ldap_add: additional info: failed to add entry ou=Songwriters,ou=Singers,dc=example,dc=com: [36] aliasDereferencingProblem - attempt to create alias with cycle to relative ou=Singers,dc=example,dc=com not allowed from descendent alias 2.5.4.11=songwriters,2.5.4.11=singers,0.9.2342.19200300.100.1.25=example,0.9.2342.19200300.100.1.25=com
> It seems that ApacheDS does not allow to create an alias from a descendant. I tried the same with Tivoli Directory Server 6.0 and Sun Java System Directory Server 5.2, both allowed this constellation.
> Find attached a JNDI JUnit test which is able to cause the error by adding two entries programmatically.
