Or how about creating an OU=policies under the root DIT and including theseObjectclass: personObjectclass: pwdpolicyObjectclass: topcn:defaultpwdAttribute:2.5.4.35sn:summypwdlockout:TruepwdMaxfailure:3 That was just a sample. All I wanted to show was creating an OU and mentioning cn=default. Does that take care of all users? Thanks

Thanks . But we have like more than 25k users on the server. Doing that individually would be tedious. Is there any other way ?
How about a script of some sorts? Something on the lines of:ask ldap for the userlist (using ldapsearch) for each user Add objectClass: pwdPolicy (using ldapmodify) done

Hello
I want to enable password policy on Openldap 2.4.30(to all users. I see that the ppolicy.ldif and ppolicy.schema are listed under /usr/local/etc/openldap/schema but are not present on /usr/local/etc/openldap/slapd.d/cn=config folder. So do I need to add the policy.ldif to the cn=config folder ? Is there like specific procedure to do that or can I add manually with ldapadd ? Also how do I enable that schema to all users ? Please help.

If you have the policy as a diff, you could add it by saying
ldapadd -Y EXTERNAL -H ldapi:/// -f /path/to/ppolicy.ldif
Then you need to ldapmodify each user, adding something like
objectClass: pwdPolicy
to each of them.
This is off the top of my head, so do verify before doing exciting thingies to your server. ;)
