hi,guys

    I can't chang user password via simple authentication at ldap

client.

I have set acl rule in slapd.conf.

 access to attr=userPassword
      by self write
      by anonymous auth
      by dn.base="cn=Manager,dc=abc,dc=com" write
      by * none

access to * by self write by dn.base"cn=Manager,dc=abc,dc=com" write by * read

ldappasswd -x -D "uid=bobliu,ou=it,dc=abc,dc=com" -W -S

New password: Re-enter new password: Enter LDAP Password: ldap_bind: Invalid credentials (49)

but can use ldapsearch via simple authentication. what about problem. thks

Are you positive that you are successfully authenticating with ldapsearch? Your 'by * read' for 'access to *' would allow anonymous users read access to everything except the userPassword entry. See chapter 8 in the OpenLDAP Admin Guide for a saner example.

Use debugging/logging to trouble shoot. See slapd(8), and slapd.conf(5).
