Hi Daniel, Thanks for getting back to me so fast!
Well, even if that's the case - I don't mind, but here's a little more depth into the problem... I can bind to the LDAP server as a user, and have that user issue a change of password for themselves - and that works fine. I can do the same via the admin user too of course. Regardless of how I change the password, I still get: % ssh darius You are required to change your LDAP password immediately.
