Description

I have two ACIs set up: one which allows users access to change their passwords; one which allows anonymous search so the system can be used as an authenticator without needing a hard-wired account to bind to.

Every now and then, the anonymous search capability (both as an authenticator and when tried with ldapsearch -x) simply stops working. Killing and restarting the server does not restore it. Editing the ACI in any way, however – changing its precedence for example – immediately fixes it.
