Hello,

 

I'm trying out different ways of changing password and looking at how these handle the policies (eg pwd history)

I can succesfully change a password from the command line (passwd)  on a Linux LDAP client

When I try changing the password using ldappasswd the slapd process disappears after a succesfull change ( ldappasswd -x -h ldapserver -D 'uid=user2change,base' -A -S -W -ZZ 'uid=user2change,base' )

It ends with: 

 ldappasswd: ldap_result: Can't contact LDAP server (-1)
Which means slapd died. When I startup slapd on the server I can do an ldapsearch with the new password.

Has anyone seen the same behaviour?

 

Someone told me about a web gateway included in FDS to change password, at which URL can I find this? Should I specifically enable this webinterface?

 

TIA,

Jo
