This is a new error type, relating to the newer config option:  Reject On Match

 

 Search Mode Error | Join Match
Source DN | CN=Nichols\, Eric,OU=More Users,DC=2k3,DC=local
Dest DN | CN=Eric Nichols,OU=Synchere,DC=2k8x64,DC=local

 

This error may appear during sync runs that have Create/Join and 'Reject On Match' enabled (on the Destination tab).

 

This error indates that the specified Source object could not be synced.  This occurs when a matching object is found to already exist on the destination directory, outside the specified Create Placement DN.  You have enabled Reject On Match. So the existing destination object results in this error. The Dest DN(s) identify the existing destination that conflicts with the Create/Join attempt. 

 

In other words if a matching object is found within your sync container it will be updated.  If NO match is found anywhere, a new object is added (in your sync container).   If a match is found elsewhere, outside your sync container, no action is taken on the destination directory, a Join Match error is logged.
