access rights
In the context of access control, specify the level of access granted or denied. Access rights are
related to the type of operation that can be performed on the directory. The following rights can
be granted or denied: read, write, add, delete, search, compare, selfwrite, proxy and all.
account inactivation
Disables a user account, group of accounts, or an entire domain so that all authentication attempts
are automatically rejected.
All IDs Threshold
A size limit which is globally applied to every index key managed by the server. When the size
of an individual ID list reaches this limit, the server replaces that ID list with an All IDs token.
All IDs token
A mechanism which causes the server to assume that all directory entries match the index key. In
effect, the All IDs token causes the server to behave as if no index were available for the search
request.
