I'm trying to learn openldap. I have a user that I want to change their password on, but I'm getting an error:

[testuser@gomer ~]$ ldappasswd -WS -D "uid=testuser,ou=People,dc=gomer,dc=mdah,dc=state,dc=ms,dc=us"

[root@gomer ~]# ldapsearch -D 'cn=Manager,dc=gomer,dc=mdah,dc=state,dc=ms,dc=us' -b "uid=testuser,ou=People,dc=gomer,dc=mdah,dc=state,dc=ms,dc=us" -w xxxxxx -x

Notice the missing -x option from ldappasswd that you include with ldapsearch.
