NAME

       slapacl - Check access to a list of attributes.

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/sbin/slapacl   -b DN   [-d debug-level]   [-D authcDN |  -U authcID]  [-f slapd.conf]
       [-F confdir]    [-o option[=value]]    [-u]    [-v]    [-X authzID |    -o     authzDN=DN]
       [attr[/access][:value]] [...]

DESCRIPTION

       slapacl  is  used  to check the behavior of slapd(8) by verifying access to directory data
       according to the access control list directives defined in its  configuration.   It  opens
       the  slapd.conf(5)  configuration  file  or  the  slapd-config(5)  backend,  reads  in the
       access/olcAccess directives, and then parses the attr list given on the  command-line;  if
       none is given, access to the entry pseudo-attribute is tested.

OPTIONS

       -b DN  specify  the  DN  which  access is requested to; the corresponding entry is fetched
              from the database, and thus it must exist.  The DN is also used to  determine  what
              rules  apply;  thus,  it must be in the naming context of a configured database. By
              default, the first database that supports the requested  operation  is  used.   See
              also -u.

       -d debug-level
              enable debugging messages as defined by the specified debug-level; see slapd(8) for
              details.

       -D authcDN
              specify a DN to be used  as  identity  through  the  test  session  when  selecting
              appropriate <by> clauses in access lists.

       -f slapd.conf
              specify an alternative slapd.conf(5) file.

       -F confdir
              specify  a config directory.  If both -f and -F are specified, the config file will
              be read and converted to config directory  format  and  written  to  the  specified
              directory.   If  neither option is specified, an attempt to read the default config
              directory will be made before trying to use the default config  file.  If  a  valid
              config directory exists then the default config file is ignored.

       -o option[=value]
              Specify an option with a(n optional) value.  Possible generic options/values are:

                     syslog=<subsystems>  (see `-s' in slapd(8))
                     syslog-level=<level> (see `-S' in slapd(8))
                     syslog-user=<user>   (see `-l' in slapd(8))

              Possible options/values specific to slapacl are:

                     authzDN
                     domain
                     peername
                     sasl_ssf
                     sockname
                     sockurl
                     ssf
                     tls_ssf
                     transport_ssf

              See the related fields in slapd.access(5) for details.

       -u     do  not  fetch  the  entry  from the database.  In this case, if the entry does not
              exist, a fake entry with the  DN  given  with  the  -b  option  is  used,  with  no
              attributes.   As  a  consequence,  those  rules  that depend on the contents of the
              target object will not behave as with the real object.  The DN given  with  the  -b
              option  is  still  used  to select what rules apply; thus, it must be in the naming
              context of a configured database.  See also -b.

       -U authcID
              specify an ID to be mapped to a DN as by means  of  authz-regexp  or  authz-rewrite
              rules (see slapd.conf(5) for details); mutually exclusive with -D.

       -v     enable verbose mode.

       -X authzID
              specify  an  authorization  ID  to be mapped to a DN as by means of authz-regexp or
              authz-rewrite rules (see slapd.conf(5) for details);  mutually  exclusive  with  -o
              authzDN=DN.

EXAMPLES

       The command

            /usr/sbin/slapacl -f /etc/ldap/slapd.conf -v \
                   -U bjorn -b "o=University of Michigan,c=US" \
                "o/read:University of Michigan"

       tests  whether  the  user  bjorn  can  access the attribute o of the entry o=University of
       Michigan,c=US at read level.
