Andrey thanks for the response.
Rich, is this something that can be accomplished in the
current release?
Is there something that can be added similar to the aci
showed for the phpldapadmin functionality?
I would prefer not to use phpldapadmin or any other 3rd
party tool if we can grant limited access with the admin
console
I also agree with
Andrey that this is a nice feature to have in future releases if possible,
definitely on my wish list!!
Thank you
James
I think it is somehow linked to the ACIs on the "o=NetscapeRoot"
tree. If you allow to all the authentified users read some of the subtrees of
o=NetscapeRoot" you should have a better directory visibility in the console for
a "normal" user.
But it would be an interesting request for the future
roadmap in order to leverage the FDS console:
* adjust the ACIs in the
o=NetscapeRoot branch to allow non-administrative users take advantage of the
FDS console. Also when entering the DN during the console authentification
allow just the RDN part - i.e. the possibility to put "john.doe" instead of
"uid=john.doe,ou=Engineering,dc=example,dc=com" in the console authentification
dialogue.

Hello,
I
am looking to use the Directory Server Admin Console similar to how
the
Active Directory user's and Computers tool is used.
More specifically I
would like to create an administrative group with
permission to perform
certain functions such as reset user passwords and
change certain other
attributes. I would like to login to the console
with these users instead
of Directory Manager or admin to limit the
access and damage that can be
done.
I have created a group of users with full access to my suffix
with
ability to add and remove objects. I can do pretty much any
operation
with ldapmodify, ldapadd, ldapdelete from the command
line.
However I cannot login to the Directory server console with these
users
to admin the directory.
If I login as Directory Manager to the
admin console and then select
"login as new user" I am able to login with
the users, however the
Directory is not visible. I do not have the correct
access somewhere
obviously.
How can I configure FDS to allow these
users to admin the directory in a
limited role? I am assuming I need to set
aci's in certain places to
allow logging into the FDS admin server console
.
I am assuming this is possible. I am able to access with a third
party
tool but would like to use the FDS admin console.
Thank
you
James
