Justin,

Our LDAP user base is very large...like thousands of users.  I only want to
grant access to a small handful of them.  Further, I'm only wanting to give
them admin rights to one workspace, not full admin rights.  Maybe it would
be better if I just managed them as "regular" users on the GS and forget
the LDAP.  My problem with that, however, is I didn't see any way for
normal (not admin) users to change their own password.  It appears that
only someone with full admin privileges can change passwords.  Is that
right?

Matt
