.SH SYNOPSIS
.B SBINDIR/slapacl
.B [\-v]
.B [\-d level]
.B [\-f slapd.conf]
.B [\-D authcDN | \-U authcID]
.B \-b DN

.LP
.SH DESCRIPTION
.LP
.B Slapacl
is used to check the behavior of the slapd in verifying access to data
according to ACLs, as specified in
.BR slapd.access (5).
It opens the
.BR slapd.conf (5)
configuration file, reads in the
.B access
and
.B defaultaccess
directives, and then parses the
.B attr
list given on the command-line; if none is given, access to the
.B entry
pseudo-attribute is tested.
.LP
.SH OPTIONS
.TP
.B \-v
enable verbose mode.
.TP
.BI \-d " level"
enable debugging messages as defined by the specified
.IR level .
.TP
.BI \-f " slapd.conf"

.TP
.BI \-U " authcID"
specify an ID to be mapped to a
.B DN
as by means of
.B authz-regexp
or
.B authz-rewrite
rules (see
.BR slapd.conf (5)
for details); mutually exclusive with
.BR \-D .
.TP
.BI \-b " DN"
specify the
.B DN
access to is requested; the corresponding entry is not fetched
from the database, and thus it must not exist.
However, a database must be selected to determine what rules
apply; thus, it must be in the naming context of a configured database.
