Howard Chu <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|UNCONFIRMED |RESOLVED Resolution|--- |INVALID --- Comment #2 from Howard Chu <[email protected]> --- The slapd-config(5) manpage states explicitly Unlike other backends, there can only be one instance of the config backend, and most of its structure is predefined. The root of the data‐ base is hardcoded to cn=config and this root entry contains global set‐ tings for slapd. The Admin Guide says in section 5.3 Lines 23-25 identify this entry as the config database entry. Line 26 defines the super-user password for this database. (The DN defaults to "cn=config".) Line 27 denies all access to this database, so only the super-user will be able to access it. (This is already the default access on the config database. It is just listed here for illustration, and to reiterate that unless a means to authenticate as the super-user is explicitly configured, the config database will be inaccessible.) I see no need for additional description. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the issue.
