[389-users] Re: Trying to deny any bind/query rights to Administration Domain suffix for user

Hello, Sorry for the long post: I have an Oracle Linux 7.9 installation running 389 Directory Server 1.3. It contains 3 suffixes.  The first is the o=netscaperoot.  The second is the Administration Domain based on the FQN of the server: dc=prodapps, dc=prodvcn, dc=oraclevcn, dc=com.  The third is one that was manually created to store users and groups from an AD migration which I will refer to as dc=company,dc=com. Under this third suffix, I created 2 OUs to match what I was retrieving out of AD, ou=MIGRATED, ou=US. I created a user under the dc=company,dc=com called lsc.  So its DN is uid=lsc,dc=company,dc=com.  This user has full control over the suffix in that it can query, create, and remove objects, it is used with the lsc-project tools to migrate and transform the AD content, which was brought over successfully. I am accessing this from SAP BusinessObjects also remapping from AD to LDAP.  And you specify a specific Bind DN and Base DN to utilize and that is what it should use to query from. However, what I see in the Ldap Query behavior from the application is this: LDAP: LdapQueryForEntries: *QUERY* base: dc=company, dc=com, scope: 2, filter: (uid=Test.User), attribute: dn objectclass LDAP: LdapQueryForEntries: *QUERY* result: 0 took 0 ms LDAP: LdapQueryForEntries() *QUERY* number of entries returned: 1 LDAP: LdapQueryForEntries: *QUERY* base: cn=test user, ou=migrated, ou=us, dc=company, dc=com, scope: 0, filter: , attribute: uid CN objectclass LDAP: LdapQueryForEntries: *QUERY* result: 0 took 0 ms LDAP: LdapQueryForEntries() *QUERY* number of entries returned: 1 LDAP: LdapQueryForEntries: *QUERY* base: dc=company, dc=com, scope: 2, filter: (cn=test user), attribute: description objectclass LDAP: LdapQueryForEntries: *QUERY* result: 0 took 0 ms LDAP: LdapQueryForEntries() *QUERY* number of entries returned: 1 GetParents from plugin for secLDAP:cn=test user, ou=migrated, ou=us, dc=company, dc=com LDAP: LdapQueryForAttribute: *QUERY* base: dc=com, scope: 0, filter: (objectclass=*), attribute: dn LDAP: LdapQueryForAttribute: *QUERY* result: 32 took 0 ms LDAP: LdapQueryForAttribute: *QUERY* base: dc=company, dc=com, scope: 0, filter: (objectclass=*), attribute: dn LDAP: LdapQueryForAttribute: *QUERY* result: 0 took 0 ms LDAP: LdapQueryForEntries: *QUERY* base: dc=company, dc=com, scope: 2, filter: (&(objectclass=inetOrgPerson)(cn=test user)), attribute: dn objectclass LDAP: LdapQueryForEntries: *QUERY* result: 0 took 0 ms LDAP: LdapQueryForEntries() *QUERY* number of entries returned: 1 LDAP: LdapQueryForEntries: *QUERY* base: dc=prodapps, dc=prodvcn, dc=oraclevcn, dc=com, scope: 2, filter: (&(objectclass=groupOfNames)(member=cn=test user, ou=migrated, ou=us, dc=company, dc=com)), attribute: dn LDAP: LdapQueryForEntries: *QUERY* result: 0 took 0 ms LDAP: LdapQueryForEntries() *QUERY* number of entries returned: 0 Failed to add alias 'Test.User'. Reason: It is not a member in any of the mapped groups. Error encountered on Object (9388): Creation of the user Test.User cannot complete because the user is not a member in any of the mapped groups. In the above case, I am trying to add the user test.user (which is cn=test user,ou=migrated,ou=us,dc=company,dc=com) and has a uid of test.user.  The system finds that without an issue. However, the next part, I don't know how or why the bind user uid=lsc is then changing the base dn to the Administration Domain and attempting the search there for a group member.  This base dn should have remained dc=company, dc=com. To get around this, I am trying to block access to the Administration Domain suffix for the lsc user.  I removed anonymous bind access, then added this aci: dn: dc=prodapps,dc=prodvcn,dc=oraclevcn,dc=com changetype: modify add: aci aci: (target="ldap:///dc=prodapps,dc=prodvcn,dc=oraclevcn,dc=com")  (version 3.0; acl "Deny company dc user access to prodapps";  deny(all) userdn="ldap:///uid=*,dc=company,dc=com || ldap:///cn=*,dc=company,dc=com";) After this, when using tools such as Apache Directory Studio, the lsc user didn't see the Admin Domain if it went to retrieve the available DNs.  However, a ldapsearch still worked, it did a bind properly, just returned no records like expected: ldapsearch -x -LLL -h server -p 389 -D "uid=lsc,dc=company,dc=com" -b "dc=prodapps, dc=prodvcn, dc=oraclevcn, dc=com" -W "(&(objectclass=groupOfNames)(member=cn=test user, ou=migrated, ou=us, dc=company, dc=com))" Is there any way I can block a dn completely so it would fail to connect to the search not just return 0 records?  This way the application wouldn't be able to retrieve it and move on to another DN.

Or what would be the detriment of 389 DS running with just the one Suffix that is both the Administration Domain as well as the one used for migration (which occurs only under the ou)? i.e. re-creating the Administration Domain as dc=company,dc=com instead of the FQM domain of dc=prodapps,dc=prodvcn,dc=oraclevcn,dc=com.

Thanks in advance, and sorry for the long post.
