Hi folks,
I'm fairly new to 389-ds and I ran into an issue when trying to
update a user's password via the command line.
I was able to change a password "as" the user via the command line
using the following syntax without issue:
ldappasswd -h my389dsserver.domain.edu -p 389 -ZZ -D
"uid=jdoe,ou=People,dc=domain,dc=edu" -w current_user_passwd -s
new_user_passwd "uid=jdoe,ou=People,dc=domain,dc=edu"
However, when I tried doing the same thing as the Directory Manager,
it changes the password hash, but it doesn't update the password. In
fact, after
issuing the following command (see below), both the old and new
passwords don't work:
ldappasswd -h my389dsserver.domain.edu -p 389 -ZZ -D "cn=Directory
Manager" -w directorymanager_passwd -s new_user_passwd
"uid=jdoe,ou=People,dc=domain,dc=edu"
Do you see any error messages in /var/log/dirsrv/slapd-INSTANCE/errors?
No errors reported in /var/log/dirsrv/slapd-INSTANCE/errors when I run
the ldappasswd command with "cn=Directory Manager".
What does this access log file log for the operation?

What happens if you run this command line?
$ ldapmodify -h my389dsserver.domain.edu -p 389 -ZZ -D "cn=Directory
Manager" -w directorymanager_passwd << EOF
dn: uid=jdoe,ou=People,dc=domain,dc=edu
changetype: modify
replace: userPassword
userPassword: new_user_passwd
EOF
Is the user's password is set to new_user_passwd?
No, the password fails to be set, and both passwords, old and new, are
now invalid. The output is:
----- keystrokes of issued command ----
# ldapmodify -h my389dsserver.domain.edu -p 389 -ZZ -D "cn=Directory
Manager" -w directorymanager_passwd << EOF
> dn: uid=jdoe,ou=People,dc=domain,dc=edu
> changetype: modify
> replace: userPassword
> userPassword: 123abc!@garbage
> EOF
modifying entry "uid=jdoe,ou=People,dc=domain,dc=edu"
--- end of output ---
I'm puzzled. So, it "acts" like it changes the password by telling me
it is "modifying the entry", but it inserts something into the password
because the old password and the new password don't work.
Thanks for your help on this....
I found the following page,
http://directory.fedoraproject.org/docs/389ds/design/password-administrator.html,
but being fairly
new to 389-ds I wasn't sure how to create/define/add the ability to
be a password administrator to an account.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,
