I found something in the ACL that looks like it is the problem:

# grep -R -i olcaccess ./* ./cn=config/olcDatabase={0}config.ldif:olcAccess: {0}to * by * none ./cn=config/olcDatabase={1}mdb.ldif:olcAccess: {0}to * by * none ./cn=config/olcDatabase={1}mdb.ldif:olcAccess: {1}to attrs=userpassword by anonymous auth by * none break ./cn=config/olcDatabase={1}mdb.ldif:olcAccess: {2}to dn.base="" by * read ./cn=config/olcDatabase={1}mdb.ldif:olcAccess: {3}to attrs=entry by * read ./cn=config/olcDatabase={1}mdb.ldif:olcAccess: {4}to dn.subtree="o=ldap,c=com" attrs=objectclass,mail,givenName,sn ./cn=config/olcDatabase={1}mdb.ldif:olcAccess: {5}to * by dn.base="cn=mirrormode,ou=system,o=ldap,c=com" followed by more of the same.

We are actually running slapd.conf with included files, but output above was taken from the slapd.d directory, generated using slaptest -f slapd.conf -F /tmp/slapd.d

The slapd.d generated dir contains olcDatabase={1}mdb.ldif:olcAccess: {0}to * by * none *ABOVE * olcAccess: {1}to attrs=userpassword by anonymous auth by * none break

That's probably our issue! But I can't find that line olcAccess: {0} in our slapd.conf and the included files.

Wondering now how it got there. But... locating that is something for another day.

You helped us again. (unless you disagree that this is most likely our issue?)

Thanks, I will post the result after I manage to get that ACL {0} out of my config.

Hi,

I was preparing some more logging to show. You were *really* quick in your reply! :-)

Below more logging, and I will reply to your ACL question next.

Hi all!

We have this in place:olcAccess: {1}to attrs=userpassword by anonymous auth by * none break

It's impossible to answer this question without knowing the rest of your ACLs. For example the acl in slot {0} could mean that the acl in slot {1} is never evaluated.
