Hello List -
Please forgive my ignorance regarding the ACL's in OpenLDAP. For Starters I'm using OpenLDAP Software 2.4, and I've obtained the software from sunfreeware.com. OpenLDAP is running on a Solaris 10 Sparc system.
My goal is to have each one of my user able to read/write to their own personal address book. I've added my initial LDIF file, and configured slapd as best I could understand. I can ldapadd using the root dn, and I can see all of the entries that I added using ldapsearch. However when I try to add to my personal entry, I receive this error.
ldapadd -D "cn=Elliott Smith,ou=users,dc=Company,dc=com" -f contact.ldif Enter bind password: adding new entry cn=Nick Drake,ou=addressbook,dc=Company,dc=com ldap_add: Insufficient access ldap_add: additional info: no write access to parent
Below are my LDIF and slapd. I want to express that I have read through as much of this list as I could regarding the "no write access to parent", and I've found many have similar issues. I feel that my setup is fairly straight forward.
Any help is much appreciated. Let me know if you need more information.
The LDIF I used to begin... # Initialize the suffix entry defined in slapd.conf # dn: dc=company,dc=com objectclass: top objectclass: dcObject objectclass: organization dc: company o: corporate
# # Initialize the AddressBooks heirarchy # dn: ou=addressbook,dc=company,dc=com objectclass: top objectclass: organizationalUnit ou: addressbook
# # Define individual address books # dn: o=hr,ou=addressbook,dc=company,dc=com objectclass: top objectclass: organization o: hr
# # Initialize the Users heirarchy # dn: ou=users,dc=company,dc=com objectclass: top objectclass: organizationalUnit ou: users
# # Define individual users # dn: cn=Elliott Smith,ou=users,dc=company,dc=com objectclass: top objectclass: person cn: Elliott Smith sn: Smith userPassword: mysecret uid: esmith
The slapd I'm using... # See slapd.conf(5) for details on configuration options. # This file should NOT be world readable. # include /usr/local/etc/openldap/schema/core.schema include /usr/local/etc/openldap/schema/cosine.schema include /usr/local/etc/openldap/schema/inetorgperson.schema

# Do not enable referrals until AFTER you have a working directory # service AND an understanding of referrals. #referral ldap://root.openldap.org
