Hello, I need to be able to reset a LDAP user's password if they forget it with the user root. But when I try the "passwd" command as root for a LDAP user, I get the following:
(as root) passwd tuser Changing password for user tuser. Password reset by root is not supported. passwd: Authentication token manipulation error. I am using sssd as the LDAP authentication mechanism tool, to be specific. Does anyone have a solution to dealing with this issue of resetting a LDAP user's password if they forgot it?

However, I keep getting an authentication token manipulation error whenever I try to reset the password using that command. What do I need to do in the 389 DS or on Unix in order to get this command to work? Thanks, Rohit
