Hi there,

Hi

Is there any way to lock user in LDAP database ? I mean, in linux, it's possible to use passwd <username> -l to lock user and -u to unlock. Is there a similar function in LDAP ?

LDAP is not an autentication mechanism by itself, if you are storing unix/posix accounts in your directory maybe you can add the fields to store the expire values, you can use the latest version of smbldap-tools, they have a very good support for this.

Thanks
