Using 1.5.2 it appears I can do an anonymous bind to the directory -yet the
allowAnonymousAccess property is set to false
There are three places where the allowAnonymousAccess flag should be set in the server.xml file :
- defaultDirectoryService
- ldapServer
- apacheDS

Obviously, this is a little bit overkilling :)

We should fix that...
Although when I try and do a search I do then get an access violation.
Being able to bind as anonymous and being able to fetch an entry out of the server are two different things. In fact, you can even do a search on the server without being forced to send a BindRequest (the rootDSE is searchable with an anonymous authorization). Now, if the Anonymous access is forbidden, you will get an access violation when earching the server, except when looing for the rootDSE attributes.
Is this supposed to happen?
Basically, yes. I have to double check about the anonymous Bind, but as we are currently working on this part of the server, this will be figured out soon.

Thanks !
