ACL Question



Hello all,

I have the following structure on my LDAP server:

ou=Misc,dc=diegolima,dc=org
ou=Users,dc=diegolima,dc=org

Under users I have some user accounts, such as
cn=user1,ou=Users,dc=diegolima,dc=org. I'd like to allow users to
create an OU under ou=Misc as long as the OU had the user's name, such
as ou=user1,ou=Misc,dc=diegolima,dc=org for user1 or
ou=user2,ou=Misc,dc=diegolima,dc=org for user2, however I wouldn't
like to simply create an ACL such as:

access to dn.exact="ou=Misc,dc=diegolima,dc=org"
    by * add

as this ultimately allows user1 to create an ou named
"ou=user2,ou=Misc". What I first tried was adding an ACL like this:

access to dn.regex="^ou=([^,]+),ou=Misc,dc=diegolima,dc=org"
    by dn.exact,expand="cn=$1,dc=diegolima,dc=org" write
    by * none


However I receive an error telling me that I need write access to the
parent entry to create this, and if I use the first ACL I seem to be
able to create OUs without any naming restriction. Is there even a way
to accomplish this?

Thank you very much!
