If you need to reset your console admin password, do something like this: ldapmodify -x -h configdshostname -D "cn=directory manager" -w dirmgrpassword dn: uid=admin, ou=Administrators, ou=TopologyManagement, o=NetscapeRoot changetype: modify replace: userPassword userPassword: thenewpassword > I have also tried resetting this password following the howto at > http://directory.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Howto:ResetDirMgrPassword, but > this didn't help either. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
