Ah HA I was wondering why that wasn't being evaluated, thank you for the heads up, this might actually help in our production LDAP server as well

Anyhow, it will never get evaluated, because ACL parsing stops at the first applicable line, which in this case is "by * read". If you want manager to do anything different, it must come *before* "by * read". > -------------------------------------- > > Slave slapd.conf > access to attrs=userPassword > by dn="uid=Replicator,ou=People,dc=fmrif,dc=nimh,dc=nih,dc=gov" write > by self write > by anonymous auth > by * none > access to * > by self write > by * read > by * write ># by anonymous auth ># by dn="cn=manager,dc=fmrif,dc=nimh,dc=nih,dc=gov" > by dn="uid=Replicator,ou=People,dc=fmrif,dc=nimh,dc=nih,dc=gov" write The Replicator write line will never be evaluated, because "by * read" will be the first matching ACL. If you want it to have write privileges, it needs to be moved above this line. --Quanah -- Quanah Gibson-Mount Principal Software Developer ITSS/Shared Services Stanford University GnuPG Public Key: http://www.stanford.edu/~quanah/pgp.html "These censorship operations against schools and libraries are stronger than ever in the present religio-political climate.
