[Fedora-directory-users] Question on password changes

I have a quick question on password changes; my current setup is the
following: I have 2 directory servers, single master environment
(supplier and consumer); I understand that all changes to the directory
have to be made by the supplier and are then replicated to the consumer;
when a client server binds to the consumer and a user attempts to change
their password, they receive an unknown error response from the server,
and changes are not made; simply configuring the client's ldap.conf file
to bind first with the supplier resolved this issue, however I was
wondering if it's possible to configure the consumer in such a way that
he will refer the update to take place on the supplier instead of
rejecting the change to the database?  I would have thought that the
consumer would simply refer changes automatically to the supplier, but
that doesn't seem to be the case.  Any thoughts?  I do know that I can
configure both servers to be masters, but I was hoping to avoid this
(I've read thru some of the directory server documentation citing errors
and so forth in a multi-master environment) Thanks.
