I've now learnt that FDS will accept a plaintext password in the LDIF from ldapmodify, which is policy checked (I had assumed only a hashed value could be provided - duh) so I can at least move on but I'm still puzzled by ldappasswd since that would be the most obvious choice for scripting password changes. It's possibly only the mozldap-tools version because I see that other implementations provide parameters to send either plaintext passwords or encrypted. -- Ross Johnson Unix Specialist, IT Infrastructure Insolvency and Trustee Service Australia Ph: +61 2 6270 3483 Fax: +61 2 6270 3413 Important: This transmission is intended only for the use of the addressee and may contain confidential or legally privileged information.
