Hi folks,

I'm fairly new to 389-ds and I ran into an issue when trying to update a user's password via the command line.

I was able to change a password "as" the user via the command line using the following syntax without issue:

ldappasswd -h my389dsserver.domain.edu -p 389 -ZZ -D "uid=jdoe,ou=People,dc=domain,dc=edu" -w current_user_passwd -s new_user_passwd "uid=jdoe,ou=People,dc=domain,dc=edu"

However, when I tried doing the same thing as the Directory Manager, it changes the password hash, but it doesn't update the password. In fact, after issuing the following command (see below), both the old and new passwords don't work:


ldappasswd -h my389dsserver.domain.edu -p 389 -ZZ -D "cn=Directory Manager" -w directorymanager_passwd -s new_user_passwd "uid=jdoe,ou=People,dc=int,dc=boulder,dc=nso,dc=edu"


I found the following page, http://directory.fedoraproject.org/docs/389ds/design/password-administrator.html, but being fairly new to 389-ds I wasn't sure how to create/define/add the ability to be a password administrator to an account.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks,

/jh
