Have you done the migration > of ACIs manually? Yeah, AFAIK the only way to migrate ol acl to aci is doing them manually, it is easy once you have figured out who have access on which part. as more of the time when you have many access rules, it became harder to migrate the file. I had 60 access rule on acl file translated to 19 aci. I could have them less than 19 but I decided to add aci on deeper leafs. Check this link on redhat doc. it will help you to migrate whatever service you are running now to aci, http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/dir-server/ag/8.0/Managing_Access_Control-Access_Control_Usage_Examples.html Once you have done the migration, life would go easier and easier for you. -- Diaa Radwan http://www.fossology.net
