it can be don't but since I've done it I lost my code. The short end of what you need to do is search for two different things. Setting an AD password with LDAP must use SSL. This involves having a certificate on your network (certificate authority i think is what microsoft calls it) to allow SSL with LDAP. Since the password needs to be in a byte array (if i remember correctly) I came to the conclusion I couldn't set a password with CFLDAP. So the next thing you need to search for is setting an AD password with java. I found java code on some Sun/Java message board and pretty much translated it line for line into a CFSCRIPT block. To use the certificate your network certificate authority has created in coldfusion you must import it into the keystore. See macromedia docs for doing that. You should now be setup to set passwords, just make sure the account you are using for the LDAP connection has the appropriate permissions to connect via LDAP and reset passwords. (see your sys admin for that, thats what i did)
Hope that helps. Sorry I don't have my code or documentation any more. Microsoft also has some helpful tools on the windows server cd. ldp.exe and... well there's another but I forgot :) Anthony ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Find out how CFTicket can increase your company's customer support efficiency by 100% http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=49 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:213043 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
