If you have a complete control over an application configuration, anyway you can do anything you want, even use/etc/passwd file instead of LDAP :) If you consider however that a bind limitation based on the ACIs could be a useful feature you can request this feature at the bugzilla of Fedora Directory Server (bugzilla.redhat.com). I don't know whether this feature exists in OpenLDAP or Active Directory... 2008/5/11 <murthy@xxxxxxxxxxx>: > Thank you very much for the URLs.
