Denying Access

If your directory holds business-critical information, you might specifically want to
deny access to it.
For example,
information such as connection time or account balance under their own entries,
but explicitly wants to deny write access to that information. This is illustrated in
ACI "Billing Info Read" and ACI "Billing Info Deny" respectively.
ACI "Billing Info Read"
In LDIF, to grant subscribers permission to read billing information in their own
entry, you would write the following statement:
aci: (targetattr="connectionTime || accountBalance") (version 3.0;

"ldap:///self";)
This example assumes that the relevant attributes have been created in the schema,

From the Console, you can set this permission by doing the following:
On the Directory tab, right click the subscribers entry under the
1.
node in the left navigation tree, and choose Set Access Permissions from the
pop-up menu to display the Access Control Manager.
Click New to display the Access Control Editor.
