Re: password replication

William,

Yes, there's a flag on AD that forces users to reset their passwords, and we're using it.... that is the same flag that is set when an account has been expired (forcing the user to reset his password).
 
I don't think that is the problem, my replication user has FULL permission in the whole tree, and like I said before I made a script in perl to change password directly in AD using the exactly same user that I use on replication, and it works, so I've been able to change the user password through this script even if this flag is set on AD side.

Here's a snippet of it:

$mesgad = $ldapad->bind("CN=389 Sync Account,OU=APPS,DC=my,DC=domain",
                        password => "MY_USER_PASS",
                        version => 3 );


        if ($mail =~ /my_user_test/) {
                printf "$dnad -- $mail -- $san\n";

                $mesgad = $ldapad->modify( $dnad,
                                        replace => {
                                                unicodePwd => $newUniPW,
                                                }
                                        


So, basically it does a ldap operation to replace the user password (I think that is the same behavior of 389 plugin, am I right?)

I don't think we try and bind as the user to change their password -
because we can't always know the passwords are in sync. I would have
though that the account that binds to AD to do the replication would
lack the permission to do the password reset. Is there a flag on the AD
account perhaps marking it for a force reset?
