Comment 1 Rich Megginson 2008-12-12 20:33:07 UTC
I think the problem may be that operational attributes do not work with the compare operation.  You tried with a regular attribute and compare works, correct?

Comment 2 Daniel Cristian Cruz 2008-12-12 21:52:33 UTC
Yes, as shown in the thread, when used with a regular attribte it works.

Just get error message using nsaccountlock.

cvs diff ldapserver/ldap/servers/plugins/cos/cos_cache.c

Description: Compare function for the CoS attribute cos_cache_cmp_attr failed to set the result.

By setting the right return code, the nsAccountLock matches true if the user's account is inactivated.
$ ldapcompare -D "cn=Directory Manager" -w <password> nsAccountLock:True "uid=tuser0,dc=example,dc=com"
comparing type: "nsAccountLock" value: "True" in entry "uid=tuser0,dc=example,dc=com"
compare TRUE
$ ldapcompare -D "cn=Directory Manager" -w <password> nsAccountLock:False "uid=tuser0,dc=example,dc=com"
comparing type: "nsAccountLock" value: "False" in entry "uid=tuser0,dc=example,dc=com"
compare FALSE

Note: once the user is activated, the compare command returns "No such attribute" (regardless of the value to compare, of course):
$ ldapcompare -D "cn=Directory Manager" -w <password> nsAccountLock:True "uid=tuser0,dc=example,dc=com"
comparing type: "nsAccountLock" value: "True" in entry "uid=tuser0,dc=example,dc=com"
ldap_compare: No such attribute
$ ldapcompare -D "cn=Directory Manager" -w <password> nsAccountLock:False "uid=tuser0,dc=example,dc=com"
comparing type: "nsAccountLock" value: "False" in entry "uid=tuser0,dc=example,dc=com"
ldap_compare: No such attribute
