So kpasswd can alter the LDAP directory without a ticket? Let me check to see if I've got this straight. There are no IPA specific tools for changing an expired password? It can be done using kpasswd (Which I really don't understand) or with a simple ldap bind where the expired password is used for binding? Further, there is no python library for changing the expired password? Is the above correct? The only way that I can see at the moment is to 'manually' alter the LDAP directory. i.e. Hash the password myself and insert it into the database. Could someone point me in the right direction for the cn and hashing algorithm I need to use?
