 The typical implementation case: managers need to take care of
 password reset requests for their subordinate employees.
 
 
  I select 'userpassword' field the first time but it fails, then
 combine it with other a few krb* fields but those don't help neither.
 
 
  If you have the minimum field combinations to make the 'password
 changing' delegation work, please feel free to post your results here.
 Presently I just select ALL fields with readright permissions to make
 it work, but that definitely is a over kill and hurts privacy
 potentially.

You need write access to at least userPassword and krbPrincipalKey.

Simo.

P.S. David, please do not start a new thread by replying to old mails.
