Re: Retrieving userPassword via back-meta



To summarize: you're saying that the "pseudorootdn" stuff no longer works
in back-meta as of 2.3.20, correct?  It may well be possible, as that area
saw a lot of development recently.  I suggest you file an ITS; can you
design a very simple, self-contained example that shows the issue, just to
ease tracking the issue?  A one-target meta with as little ACL as possible
should be fine.
