As documented in slapd.access man page: Lists of access directives are evaluated in the order they appear in slapd.conf. When a <what> clause matches the datum whose access is being evaluated, its <who> clause list is checked. When a <who> clause matches the accessor's properties, its <access> and <control> clauses are evaluated. Access control checking stops at the first match of the <what> and <who> clause, unless otherwise dictated by the <control> clause. Each <who> clause list is implicitly terminated by a
by * none stop This is why there needs to be a "by * break" at the end of the access control line - otherwise access will always be denied even if additional ACLs are added to the cn=config tree. -- Lucid (or karmic) slapd upgrade does not really allow localroot cn=config manage rights https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/559070 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
