Re: olcAccess/olcLimits modifications

I tried exactly that notation however that replaced the whole entry (so only one index left). I only wanted to replace the 12th index.

Hi,
Yes, it should be possible, so from your first example:

dn: olcDatabase={2}mdb,cn=config
changetype:modify
add: olcAccess
olcAccess: {0}full accessrule

Change that to:

dn: olcDatabase={2}mdb,cn=config
changetype:modify
replace: olcAccess
olcAccess: {0}full accessrule

Notice the use of "replace" instead of "add".

I was successfully able to modify the olcLimits and olcAccess.

What I still wonder if it's possible to just replace one index. I've tried but all the indexes got removed and replaced with the one I put.

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

That is correct. Also if you leave out the {#} entry, the value will be added at the end of any current values.

I learnt most of these details from the zytrax book on openldap, as it contained non-trivial examples. This section:http://www.zytrax.com/books/ldap/ch6/slapd-config.html#use-security describes the {} functionality.

I honestly don't see a lot of mentioning about this except for replace and deletes. Maybe it was my use of keywords.

I did some tries but I failed. I couldn't find any clear examples on doing what I wanted. I mostly saw add/replace options but without the {} ordering. I'm very new to this.

I'll try again tomorrow.

So from the IETF I understand I should be using something like this to insert a row at the beginning:
dn: olcDatabase={2}mdb,cn=config
changetype:modify
add: olcAccess
       olcAccess: {0}full accessrule
Thanks for your responses! Greatly appreciated!

Is this deleting and adding or replacing the way to go to make these
changes?
Are there alternatives?

You can add a new entry with the index {n} specified. Existing entries will be re-numbered (their index incremented) to make room.
