[389-users] "Target is beyond the scope of the ACL" wasRe: shadowLast Change NOT updating

So... The attribute is there, it's writeable, and it's not being updated when a user changes their password? That really doen't leave much other than PAM configuration. Have you looked at the server access logs to see if an attempt is being made to change it, and if so, what the result is of that attempt? It seems likely to me that the reason it's not updating is either PAM's not authenticating as who you think it is, or it's just not trying. (forgive the top post.

I tried an ACI using that, but still nothing. I am not sure we're even on the right track, if I understand what this is supposed to do correctly. If I use ldapmodify and bind to the server as the DN above, I can change the shadowLastChanged attribute value just fine. If I use ldappasswd and bind to the server as the same DN to change a user's password, it changes the password ok, but the shadowLastChanged attribute value never gets updated (the password is still expired). If all I had to do was fix this via shell, I could make a script to do both (I already did, in fact), but there are other php apps such as that squirrelmail plugin that need the attribute updated when the password has been changed. I'd really appreciate any pointers on this. Thanks!
