Yea, this one stumped me for quite a while to. From section 5.3 of the Slapd administrators guide: NOTE: The DN pattern specified should be "normalized", meaning that there should be no extra spaces, and commas should be used to separate components. An example normalized DN is "cn=Babs Jensen,o=University of Michigan,c=US". An example of a non-normalized DN is "cn =Babs Jensen; o=University of Michigan, c=US". So you need to get rid of the spaces in your access line. i.e.: access to * by dn="cn=admin,ou=People,dc=localnet" write I'll go ahead and report this to the openldap maintainer. --Bill Van Devender
