There is no such thing as a pseudo rootdn.

1. Either you have rootdn directive set or not.

Note: It is needed for some overlays.

2. Either you have rootpw directive set or not.

I always use slapd -h "ldapi://.." omit rootpw and have the following directive:

authz-regexp "gidnumber=0\+uidnumber=0,cn=peercred,cn=external,cn=auth" "cn=root,dc=example,dc=com"

Then user root can always locally authenticate without a password like this:

ldawhoami -H ldapi:// -Y EXTERNAL

Thank you. How do you prevent remote logins as cn=root,dc=example,dc=com in that setup?
