Re: [webmin-l] LDAP users - reset passwords

[Greg M. <Moe...@ge...>]

As in what application?  We have a Lawson application system that uses the =
LDAP to authenticate it's web portal access through.  We have used Sun =
One's Directory Server to manage the database, but rumor has it that it =
will soon be moving to something other LDAP DS.=20

FYI, Lawson is a competitor with PeopleSoft, etc. and is very good in the =
Healthcare marketplace.

We have an LDAP server here, and I've tried to get the LDAP User Admin =

They do not have Unix login accounts, therefore no UID, GID, Home =
directory, etc....

They don't even have the posixAccount object class.  I've gotten them to =

get invalid UID error message.

Any way around that?

Or is there a simpler way to do a simple password change?

Thanks for your time,

Unfortunately you are out of luck, at least with the current design of the =
module. 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.

Just out of curiousity, what created this LDAP database that you are =
trying to change passwords in?
