Re: ACL configuration in openldap 1.2.11

[Joseph Hoot <joe@networkpenguin.com>]

the logs were complaining about "by anonymous."  I commented that out and it
runs.  However, my user can't change the password with the following:

 ldappasswd -t uid=jhoot,ou=people,dc=nowcom,dc=com -H md5 

with the below access rules, my user jhoot should be able to change his
password right?
