I know that the NDK has Java api's that allow you to accomplish this but I was hoping i wouldn't have to install jar files etc.
We authenticate to web apps using LDAP but haven't done the password reset thing yet, but we will. It's just a matter of which method we wind up using. Darren >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 10/03/02 04:48PM >>> We use the ldap- Novell here as well. If I remember nds won't let you change the password......but I could be wrong.......anyways we have stayed away from allowing that. Have you successfully done it? >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 10/03/02 04:33PM >>> Deanna, Yes! but the CF 4.5 documentation warns that when you "modify" you must specify all values for all existing attributes along with the new ones because any existing attributes you don't specify will be overwritten with empty values. We use an LDAP bridge into Novell NDS and there are way too many attributes to reiterate when we just want to set the password. I thought there might be a more straightforward way to do this. Am I wrong on this detail? Thanks again, Darren >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 10/03/02 04:13PM >>> You mean like so: <!--- Change password ---> <cfldap server="#request.ldapserver#" port="389" action="modify" username="uid=#request.ldapusername#, ou=CES, ou=uwex, o=Extension" password="#request.ldappassword#" attributes="userpassword=#form.password#" dn="uid=#newid#, ou=CES, ou=uwex, o=Extension"> Deanna Schneider Interactive Media Developer [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists&body=lists/cf_talk FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq This list and all House of Fusion resources hosted by CFHosting.com.
