OpenLDAP Faq-O-Matic: ldap_bind: Insufficient access

	OpenLDAP Faq-O-Matic : OpenLDAP Software FAQ : Common Errors : ldap_bind: Insufficient access
	Current versions of slapd(8) requires that clients have authentication permission to attribute types used for authentication purposes before accessing them to perform the bind operation. As all bind operations are done anonymously (regardless of previous bind succuss), the `auth` access must be granted to `anonymous`. In the example ACL below grants the following access: to `anonymous` users: permission to authenticate using values of userPassword to authenticated `users`: permission to update (but not read) their userPassword permission to read any object excepting values of userPassword All other access is denied. access to attr=userpassword by self =w by anonymous auth access * by self write by users read
	Note that latest versions of slapd(8) will report invalid credentials in cases where the client has insufficient access to complete the operation. This is avoid inappropriate disclosure of the validity of the user's name.
