Subject: Access Control



I am using openlapd on redHat Linux 8.0
Rootdn is "o=mydomain.com"

And I have three entries under it.

Entry 1. "ou=Unit1, o=mydomain.com"
Entry 2. "ou=Unit2, o=mydomain.com"
Entry 3. "ou=Unit3, o=mydomain.com"

All three have userPassword attr, set thru ldappasswd utility.

Now how shud the access control in slapd.conf be so that

A)  lapdmodify -h localhost -D "ou=Unit1, o=mydomain.com" -x -w
passForUnit1 -f x.ldif
   should allow modification of Entry 1.
   But lapdmodify -h localhost -D "ou=Unit2, o=mydomain.com" -x -w
passForUnit2 -f x.ldif
   or lapdmodify -h localhost -D "ou=Unit3, o=mydomain.com" -x -w
passForUnit3 -f x.ldif
   should not.

x.ldif contains
dn: ou=Unit1, o=mydomain.com
Ou: Unit1
objectClass: organizationalUnit

B) Any one can serach the ldap database, but they have to authenticate
with their respective passwords. 


I thought of something like this
  access * 
       by dn="o=mydomina.com" write
       by self write
       by * read  

But this did not help at all!

Thanx
  Kiran
