Description Amita Sharma 2012-12-20 07:46:16 UTC
Description of problem:
For modifiersName/internalModifiersName feature, internalModifiersname is not 

Steps::
=======
The internalModifersname or internalCreatorsname is NOT supposed to be a 
bind DN, like "cn=directory manager", but either the DNA plugin or the 
the ldbm database plugin.

But we are seeing "cn=directory manager" for internalModifersname in DNA plugin.

/usr/lib64/mozldap/ldapsearch -1 -h dhcp201-134.englab.pnq.redhat.com -p 7512 -D "cn=directory manager" -w Secret123 -b uid=amsharma1,dc=example,dc=com objectClass=* internalModifiersname
dn: uid=amsharma1,dc=example,dc=com
internalModifiersname: cn=directory manager

So this is a bug.

the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Comment 6 Amita Sharma 2013-01-28 12:22:02 UTC
grep the internalModifiersname in the user entry
/usr/lib64/mozldap/ldapsearch -1 -T -h dell-pe2800-01.rhts.eng.bos.redhat.com -p 8086 -D cn=directory manager -w Secret123 -b cn=Posix User1,dc=example,dc=com objectClass=* internalModifiersname | grep -i cn=Distributed Numeric Assignment Plugin,cn=plugins,cn=config
internalModifiersname: cn=Distributed Numeric Assignment Plugin,cn=plugins,cn=config
internalModifiersname is plugin DN

cn=ldbm  database,cn=plugins,cn=config is the expected result when a plugin does  not interfere.  Since no plugins add entries, this is the value that  should always be expected for internalCreatorsname.
The internalModifersname and internalCreatorsname are always going to be plugin names.  They will never be bind DN's.
