Re: ldappasswd questions.

Have the user bind as themselves:

ldappasswd -W -D "uid=username..." -E "uid=username..."

Using -x -v -ZZ also couldn't hurt. For this to work, you must have
granted the users write access to their passwords in slapd.conf:

access to attrs=userPassword
  by self write
  by * read

Hope this helps. If you are using pam, pam_ldap, and a compatible
version of passwd, they can also use passwd in the traditional manner.
