With newer version of openldap-servers-2.4.23-26 on RHEL 6.x this is not the same, and hope you can help me understand this to assign access to user to be able to manage the directory.

BTW: There was a change from 2.3.x to 2.4.x. With 2.4 you have to grant access to entry pseudo attributes 'entry' and 'children' of the superior entry. Search the mailing list archive for the details.
