We are accessing the OpenLDAP directory from our Canon iR3570. As we
configured OpenLDAP to let workstations authenticate, the copier has
read access to the ou=people,dc=domain,dc=tld subtree. You can find the
appropriate section in /etc/openldap/ox.conf:

access to dn.regex="uid=(.*),ou=people,dc=mybuehl,dc=ch"
 by self write
 by group="cn=OXUserAdmins,ou=Administration,ou=group,dc=mybuehl,dc=ch"
write
 by users read
 by peername.regex=127.*.*.* read
 by peername.regex=10.*.*.* read

The last line was added by me and it allows all internal clients to
fully read the people subtree. You can restrict access to certain
attributes by add them at the end of the first line, e.g.:

access to dn.regex="uid=(.*),ou=people,dc=domain,dc=tld"
attr=alias,mailEnabled,....
