This is a new install, straight from the docs with 4 boxes in an MMR setup. Attempting a password change from a Linux command line, I get this feedback. > $ passwd Changing password for user jbeamon. Enter login(LDAP) password: New UNIX password: Retype new UNIX password: LDAP password information update failed: Insufficient access Insufficient 'write' privilege to the 'userPassword' attribute of entry 'uid=jbeamon,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com'. passwd: Permission denied > I zeroed out the access and error logs in advance. The error log was empty; the access log was nothing but SRCH, BIND, and RESULT entries for my account. Nothing about access problems or attempted modifies. A web search for this error message revealed one conversation in Jan 2009 that ended with "I fixed my aci and the problem went away". I haven't knowingly changed any acis since install. At the global level, user may change password. At the userRoot suffix level, user can change password and fine-grained policy is enabled. A password reset by directory manager succeeds and replicates around. Does anyone else recognize this? -j -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
