Restricting Access to the Internal Database
Netscape Console displays an entry or icon for the Directory Server instance that
CMS uses as its internal database. You can distinguish an internal database
instance from other Directory Server instances. It is in this form:
slapd-<cms_instance_id>-db
Unlike the CMS console, access to which is restricted to users with CMS
administrator privileges, the Directory Server console can be accessed by the person
who has privileges to access Netscape Console. That is, this person can open the
Directory Server console for the internal database and make changes to the data
stored there. For example, this person can make changes to the CMS administrators
group, such as deleting existing users and adding entries for self.
