Hello,

I appologize in advance if this is not the right list, in my defense I
saw that someone else posted something about a user-list which is what
my questions really is.

I am trying to take some ldif files that contain the netscape ACI
parameters and import them in ADS I am getting some error mainly due
to my organizational structure and the fact that I do not know how to
create one that has a root same as the ldif file, but my question now
is can ADS store aci parameters??

Thank you.
George

No problem. Users and developers are still living happily here in the
same list. :-)

Access Control is one of the aspects that has not yet been
standardized in the LDAP world. netscape has its own implementation
and ApacheDS has its very own one too. ApacheDS ACI model is based on
the powerful X.500 Access Control Administration Model. If you need
further help with ApacheDS ACIs we can provide further help but you
can do nothing with with netscape ACIs within ApacheDS.

That is unfortunate so I guess I need a netscape ldap server, which is
not open-source and is not available for download according to google.

Thank you for the reply,

Thanks that really helps plus someone has posted a vmware appliance
with the server which is just excellent.
Thank you very much!
