Re: [ldap] password change in openldap

[Raul Caballero Ortega <rcortega@di.uc3m.es>]

Hi:

   Sometime ago I used crypt to cypher a password in order to compare 
with the one wich is  in the posixAccount's userPassword attribute, and 
it worked fine. It may be usefull for you.

Apologies for my poor english

Good luck
