Re: [Fwd] perl ldap question

[Al L. <al....@fn...>]

I do this with the following;

$mesg = $ldap->modify ("$userDn",
	replace => { 'userpassword' => $ePassword});

I bind with the DN of someone who is allowed write access to the
directory not the user as the page this is from allows our helpdesk to
change our IMAP user passwords.

If anyone wants the complete code I'll make it available.
