from reading the AdminGuide and a quick search through the FAQ-o-Matic I couldn't gather how I'd insert a new ACL between the existing rules 2 and 3...
Reread section 5.3.6 of the Admin Guide. This has been documented for more than a year.
I took my time to read that section, for a third time. And no, it doesn't answer my question. It does document how to change the second rule - not how to insert a "2.5th" rule.
So it seems like I have to do an LDAPsearch to gather all the olcAccess values, insert a new one between two of them, prepend the weight-numbers to them and put them in an LDIF to replace the whole attribute. How inconvenient.
No. You're right that would be inconvenient, and nobody would want that.
I guess we need to copy more of the examples from http://www.highlandsun.com/hyc/drafts/draft-chu-ldap-xordered-xx.html
If you have an attribute with the values olcaccess: {0}foo olcaccess: {1}bar
and you want to insert a new value, just prepend the number of where you want the new value to go. The others will be pushed down automatically.
add: olcaccess: olcaccess: {1}blah
result: olcaccess: {0}foo olcaccess: {1}blah olcaccess: {2}bar
Nice, I'll look into that Howard.
