Hi all
Maybe it's not the good mailing list (sorry !)to post my question, but I hope someone
can help me. I use OpenLDAP to authenticate some users. Then I want my users are able to
change their passwords themselves with the command passwd. But I have this message :
<14:59>[labobe1:~]$ passwd
passwd: Sorry, `passwd' can only change passwords for local or NIS users.
I read that I have to modify passwd.c in /usr/src/usr.bin/passwd but I can't find this
path, I just have /usr/src/sys
Is-there another way to change users's password ?
Thanks for your help,
Regards,
François

I read that I have to modify passwd.c in /usr/src/usr.bin/passwd but
I
can’t find this path, I just have /usr/src/sys
This sounds very much off topic and freebsd specific. But /usr/src/sys is
the kernel source, /usr/src/usr.bin is the source for the userland
applications in /usr/bin. The userland sources need to be installed
explicitly (are not installed by default) to modify userland tools.
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/handbook/makeworld.html
But I would suggest looking for existing native authentication such as
net/nss_ldap and security/pam_ldap which allow use of ldap for storage. The
nss_ldap at might provide nss capability usable the standard userland
commands with an ldap backend.
Cheers
