Hi

I am trying to rename the (dn) entry through a normal user which is first authenticate it self, but I there is an error while renaming the dn entry

text=no write access to old parent's children

here is my slapd.conf access settings.

# Sample access control policy: access to attrs=userPassword,shadowLastChange by self write by dn="cn=admin,dc=mydomain,dc=com" write by * auth

access to * by self write by dn="cn=admin,dc=mydom,dc=com" write by * read

Would you please help, what I need to set?

The last rule allows write operations on one's own entry, but in order to modify a RDN write operations on a parent entry is required, see ldapmodrdn(1) for more information.

HI Dieter,

I am already doing this, using php

ldap_rename()

with admin user I can easily change the RDN e.g.

cn=Umar Draz,ou=accounts,dc=mydomain,dc=com

But if I try with Umar Draz user's login then then the user unable to change the (dn) e.g I want to change the old cn with new one.

cn=Umar Draz Khan,ou=accounts,dc=mydomain,dc=com.

So i must sure there is something missing in slapd.conf regarding access policy.

rootdn is not an object do any access rule, rootdn is 'root'! As I mentioned already, as user you must have write access to the parent entry.
