Description marco.pizzoli@gmail.com 2011-04-21 10:33:55 UTC
Full_Name: Marco Pizzoli
Version: 2.4.x
OS: Linux
URL: ftp://ftp.openldap.org/incoming/
Submission from: (NULL) (213.174.164.11)


This is a feature request.

I would like to further extend accesslog filtering capabilities.
It would be useful to me exclude logging of operations made by a specific user
(DN).

My usage case is a DBMS (DB2) using native LDAP authentication, which does
extensive search operations on my DIT (quite 2 millions searches per day per
instance).
I assigned a specific technical user (DN) to these DB2 instancies and so I am
able to identify operations made by those users.

This filter would allow me to reduce very much my accesslog db size and augment
my data retention.

Thanks

I would like to contribute but I'm not a developer and I have no
overlay development documentation available
