Issue ID: 9396 Summary: Docs might recommend applicationProcess for ppolicy entries Product: OpenLDAP Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: --- Component: documentation Assignee: bugs@openldap.org Reporter: kop@karlpinc.com Target Milestone: ---
Created attachment 779 --> https://bugs.openldap.org/attachment.cgi?id=779&action=edit Suggested doc patch
Hello,
The ppolicy section of the Admin Guide does not say why the "people" object class is present in the example policy entry.
I suggest that the docs explain. Otherwise the reader is left wondering why the particular choice of structural object class was made. The less informed reader is left wondering why a second object class is required at all.
I also suggest that instead of the "people" object class, that the applicationProcess object class be used in the example to provide the structural object class the entry requires.
The slapo-ppolicy man page might also provide guidance.
Attached is a suggested patch, provided so that you have something to work from. If you're not happy with the patch go ahead and discard it, I'm not advocating any particular wording.
