My admin openLDAP 2.2 password became corrupt in the last week and I
cannot log in as admin.
I was hoping there was an easy recovery such as lunix has shutting
down slapd, removing the hashed password, bringing it back up and
resetting the blank password using slappasswd. I can't take a chance
unless I know for sure.
[...]
Are you referring to rootDN, which is defined in
slapd.conf, or are you referring to an admin object within the
directory?
To modify rootpw see slappasswd(8)
To modify an entry run ldappasswd(1) as rootdn.
