Hi all. I''d like my users to be able to change their password (stored in the directory server) by issuing "passwd" or something like that. Can this be done? According to the documentation it seems like one has to use the "ldappassrd" command, which seem pretty tricky to regular users. I''m running Red Hat Directory Server 8.0.0. Regards, Kenneth

Hi Kenneth. It must be done by pam_ldap.so module.

You can refer to below documentation as to how to configure system to authenticate using RHDS http://directory.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Howto:PAM Regards Niranjan> > > Regards, > Kenneth > -- > 389 users mailing list > 389-users@redhat.com > https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-directory-users > >
