slapacl

slapacl is used to check the behavior of the slapd in verifying access to data according to ACLs. It opens the slapd.conf configuration file, reads in the access and defaultaccess directives, and then parses the attribute list given on the command-line; if none is given, access to the entry pseudo-attribute is tested.

-f FILE

Specify an alternative slapd.conf FILE.

-v
