First, look at an LDIF dump of o=netscaperoot and your userdatabase (I suggest using db2ldif:) ./db2ldif -U -s o=netscaperoot -a /tmp/nsroot.ldif Also do the same for your user suffix e.g. -s "dc=example,dc=com" Use -U to disable line wrapping, which makes using grep easier. Then, just grep for uid=admin to see which entries have an aci which explicitly calls out uid=admin, and which groups have uid=admin added to them. Then, do the same for your dse.ldif, in the entries and children of "", cn=schema, cn=config, and cn=monitor. dse.ldif is already in ldif format, so you can just grep it. > > Thanks in advance, > Jo > > Hello, > > I was wondering what the correct way is to add a extra admin > user (not > directory manager or admin) who could login via the console to do > maintenance tasks.
