It was written to manage posixAccount class user, and although it can manage some slight variations on this (like Qmail+LDAP users or Samba users), those that don't have UIDs or GIDs at all will cause problems.<br /><br />Just out of curiousity, what created this LDAP database that you are trying to change passwords in?<br /><br />=A0- Jamie<br /><br /> |
