Hi to whom it may concern,
we used for many years a 2 location policy to separate email users from unix
users in order to not using the same passwords. So we had 2 trees in our LDAP
with the same user but different passwords.
In freeipa (where we want to migrate now) I can use the accounts and compat
(for email) trees for this purpose and so I added a
dn: cn=users,cn=Schema Compatibility,cn=plugins,cn=config
changetype: modify
add: schema-compat-entry-attribute
schema-compat-entry-attribute: userPassword=*
to the compat settings to have a separate place for the password (!not
userPassword=%{userPassword}, because then the accounts password are mirrored).
This works, but I’m not allowed to change the password i.e. with:
ldappasswd -x -D "cn=Directory Manager" -W -S
uid=myuser,cn=users,cn=compat,dc=example,dc=com
I get a result of:
No such object (32)
Additional info: Failed to update password
where as for the accounts tree the ldappasswd is working fine.
What additional setting may be required?
Regards,
Rudi Gabler
