I've got openLDAP running and installed the pam and nss libraries so it
would also control the Linux passwords. I'm trying to sign onto my server
using ssh - but once I enter my username and password, I get
WARNING: Your password has expired.
You must change your password now and login again!
Enter login(LDAP) password:
Now being a bad security person, I always use the exact same username /
password combination and they don't work.
If a use either nothing (just hit Enter) or if I put in the standard
password I get
passwd: Authentication information cannot be recovered
passwd: password unchanged
Connection to ubuntu closed.
If I enter in some nonsensical string I get
LDAP Password incorrect: try again
Enter login(LDAP) password:
However, that is the only root level user on the machine and I have TONS of
stuff on it. How do I fix? Is this an openLDAP issue or something else?
Thanks

You probably don't have the slapd ACLs configured so clients can read the
necessary shadow fields... particularly those governing password age (e.g.,
shadowLastChange, shadowMax).

Thanks Matt -
With your hint, I was able to start digging around and found out that
the problem was with pam - I ended up going
into /etc/pam.d/common-password and change
password sufficient pam_ldap.so use_first_pass
password sufficient pam_ldap.so
Not quite sure what it does - but it works and I'll read the man pam
pages later
