Hello,

I am trying to allow users to change their own passwords

        OS                        RHEL7
        Openldap version         2.4.39-7.el7_1.x86_64

ACL in slapd.conf
       
        disallow bind_anon

access to attrs=userPassword
       by self write
       by dn.base="cn=mirrormode,dc=rnd,dc=com" read
       by dn.base="cn=binduser,dc=rnd,dc=com" read
       by * auth


access to *
       by dn.base="cn=mirrormode,dc=rnd,dc=com" read
       by dn.base="cn=binduser,dc=rnd,dc=com" read
       by * break

access to *
       by dn="cn=Manager,dc=rnd,dc=com"
       by users read
       by self write
       by * auth

from client machine 'user5' is trying to change own password and getting following error

$ ldappasswd -H ldaps://ldapdev.rnd.com:636 -x -D "cn=user 5,ou=people,dc=rnd,dc=com" -W -A  -S
Old password:
Re-enter old password:
New password:
Re-enter new password:
Enter LDAP Password:
Result: Insufficient access (50)
Additional info: User alteration of password is not allowed

This error looks like issue with permissions, yet i have already allowed access to attrs=userPassword by self write in slapd.conf, please let me know if there is any thing wrong in above ACL and why i am getting this error
