Changes to ACIs
Removal of the o=netscapeRoot Suffix
In previous versions of Directory Server, centralized administration information was kept in
o=netscapeRoot. In the new administration model, the concept of a configuration directory
server no longer exists. The o=netscapeRoot suffix is no longer required, and the netscapeRoot
database files are therefore not migrated. The configuration data for this suffix can be migrated,
if it is specifically required.
Changes to ACIs
The following changes have been made to ACIs in Directory Server 6.0.
Changes in the ACI Scope
In Directory Server 5.2 ACIs on the root DSE had base scope. In Directory Server 6.0, ACIs on
the root DSE have global scope by default, equivalent to targetscope="subtree".
To reproduce the same behavior as Directory Server 5.2, add targetscope="base" to ACIs on
the root DSE. If you use dsmig to migrate the configuration, this is done automatically.
Changes in Suffix-Level ACIs
In Directory Server 5.2, the following ACI was provided, at the suffix level:
aci: (targetattr != "nsroledn || aci || nsLookThroughLimit ||
nsSizeLimit || nsTimeLimit || nsIdleTimeout || passwordPolicySubentry ||
passwordExpirationTime || passwordExpWarned || passwordRetryCount ||
retryCountResetTime || acc ountUnlockTime || passwordHistory ||
passwordAllowChangeTime")(version 3.0; acl "Allow self entry modification
except for nsroledn, aci, resource limit attributes, passwordPolicySubentry
and password policy state attributes"; allow (write)userdn ="ldap:///self";)
This ACI allowed self-modification of user passwords, among other things. This ACI is no
longer provided in Directory Server 6.0. Instead, the following global ACIs are provided by
default:
aci: (targetattr != "aci") (targetscope = "base") (version 3.0;
aci "Enable read access to rootdse for anonymous users";
allow(read,search,compare) user dn="ldap:///anyone"; )
aci: (targetattr = "*") (version 3.0; acl "Enable full access
for Administrators group"; allow (all)(groupdn =
"ldap:///cn=Administrators,cn=config"); )
