Hi, I am trying to force users to change their password at first login or after password reset by administrator.
Tried following: 1)Password policy 'pwdMustChange TRUE' doesn't seems to be working as non of the users get prompt to change their password at first login.
2) used the 'pwdReset TRUE' attribute in users attributes, and it won't prompt to change the password and didn't allow to login i observe below messages in log
"slapd[12684]: connection restricted to password changing only slapd[12684]: send_ldap_result: err=50 matched="" text="Operations are restricted to bind/unbind/abandon/StartTLS/modify password" slapd[12684]: conn=1053 op=1 SEARCH RESULT tag=101 err=50 nentries=0 text=Operations are restricted to bind/unbind/abandon/StartTLS/modify password"
Please help me configure the option to force all users to change their password at first login or after pwd reset by administrator.

I always recommend to define a better password reset process where the admin never has complete knowledge of a temporary reset password. Then you simply don't need 'pwdReset'.

The LDAP client has to use the request ppolicy control and act upon the status returned in the ppolicy response control. Only very few LDAP clients do that correctly.
This all won't work in practice. See my recommendation above.
Ciao, Michael.
Hi Michael,
Please suggest the process to achieve this
Thanks & Regards Raj

The solution is to set a *separate* temporary password attribute and, depending on your security requirements and system environment, hand over the user different parts of it through different channels.

Thanks Michael for your quick response,
I am sorry I am clear on this as i have setup this LDAP for the first time, can you please elaborate more on it and route me toward right configuration.

Sorry, no. Implementing secure processes is not just a matter of a couple config lines. You have to sort this out yourself.

Ciao, Michael.
This topic comes up in search without a proper answer. The solution appears to be. 1. Set the pwdMustChange:TRUE in policies object (dn: cn=default,ou=Policies,dc=my,dc=com) 2, when creating <user> set pwdReset: TRUE after creation of <user> using update (ldapmodify), this will lock out the <user> from logins of that account (but not password changes). 3. Edit or create a login script to check if pwdReset is true (or some other method) and force <user> to change user password through ldap Step 3 may or may not be easy to setup in your environment, for instance a special guest login for password changes could work.
Important is to note that you cannot login to the created <user> using su <user> when pwdMustChange:TRUE is set and pwdReset: TRUE is set for <user>, but the user is still allowed to change the password from another user using ldap to set <user> password.

I would add that setting the password by a "password administrator" (in OpenLDAP since 2.5 that's an identity with "manage" access on the userPassword attribute) will set pwdReset: TRUE automatically as per the Behera ppolicy draft.
