Hi there,
I'm running an LDAP server version 2.3.39 and I'm using ppolicy to force users in some specific things, but I'm having some issue when I try to change my user's password with passwd command.
Here's the output screen
[user1@cliserv ~]$ ssh ldapclisrv user1@ldapclisrv's password: Your LDAP password will expire in 10 days. Last login: Wed Mar 4 17:42:18 2009 from cliserv [user1@ldapclisrv ~]$ [user1@ldapclisrv ~]$ [user1@ldapclisrv ~]$ passwd Changing password for user user1. Enter login(LDAP) password: New UNIX password: Retype new UNIX password: LDAP password information update failed: Can't contact LDAP server Must supply old password to be changed as well as new one passwd: Permission denied [user1@ldapclisrv ~]$
As you can see, I can login using LDAP ID, and I can change user1 password if I use ldappasswd, entering all ldap information, but I would like to make it simpler.
Does anybody has any idea ?
