I hope this helps. If you have further questions, don't hesitate to
post back here with your full set of ACLs, and information on the
version of slapd you're using.

I think I have it working with changing this set of ACLs:


access to attrs=userPassword,sambaLMPassword,sambaNTPassword
by self write
by dn="uid=replica,ou=Users,dc=example,dc=com" write
by anonymous auth
by * none

access to *
by dn="uid=replica,ou=Users,dc=example,dc=com" write
by * read



to this:


access to attrs=userPassword,sambaLMPassword,sambaNTPassword
by self write
by dn="uid=replica,ou=Users,dc=example,dc=com" write
by anonymous auth
by * none

access to dn.subtree="ou=Users,dc=example,dc=com"
by dn="uid=Operator,ou=Users,dc=example,dc=com" write
by * read
by self write
by dn="uid=replica,ou=Users,dc=example,dc=com" write
by anonymous auth
by * none

Be careful - none of the "by" clauses after the 2nd ("by * read") will be read. The first matching clause wins, and "*" matches everyone.

access to dn.subtree="ou=Groups,dc=example,dc=com"
by dn="uid=Operator,ou=Users,dc=example,dc=com" write
by * read
by self write
by dn="uid=replica,ou=Users,dc=example,dc=com" write
by anonymous auth
by * none

access to *
by dn="uid=replica,ou=Users,dc=example,dc=com" write
by * read


And I think I should comment out "by anonymous auth" from the two
entries I added...

auth is only meaningful on the userPassword attribute, which you already granted in your first ACL (well, except some implicit searches during bind, but this is a rare case).
