Update:
I found this post that shows how to change the default password:
http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-directory-users/2005-November/msg00..., but
unfortunately, I am unable to login as 'uid=admin,ou=system' in order to perform
the change.
As stated earlier, I am able to bind to the LDAP server anonymously, but I have
insuficient rights to change anything. I'm totally locked out of my system. How do I
reset it back to normal?If there a default password for 'uid=admin,ou=system'? I
know that for ApacheDS, the default password for 'uid=admin,ou=system' is
'secret'. Is there a similar thing for the NT4 LSAP Service?Thanks,
Shaun D

We installed the NT4 LDAP Service (ntds.msi) and have followed instructions as per
ds71admin.pdf and we are encountering an issue when authenticating to the LDAP server.
Prior to starting the service, we set the password in the usersync.conf file, but it seems
that it "did not take". Using various LDAP clients, we receive the following
error message when authenticating using "uid=admin,ou=system":[Error 49] Invalid
CredentialsLDAP: error code 49 - Bind
failureorg.apache.ldap.common.exception.LdapAuthenticationException Oddly, when binding
anonymously, we are able to connect normally and browse the contents of the SAM database.
We tried authenticating using a number of username/password combinations, but none work.
I'm a little worried about being able to bind anonymously... isn't this a security
risk? Any way to turn that off? Reading through the guide, I understand that once
started, the only way to change the password is by using an "LDAP Modify
Operation". If this is the case, how do we do this?Please advise. Thanks, Shaun D
