It works fine on my RHL 7.1 box if i try to change passwords as non-root
using the system "passwd" tool.

[shanu@xxx] ~/tmp$ passwd
Enter login(LDAP) password:
New UNIX password:
Retype new UNIX password:
LDAP password information changed for shanu
passwd: all authentication tokens updated successfully

slapd.conf:

access to attribute=
	userPassword,ntPassword,lmPassword,shadowlastchange,pwdlastset
	by dn="cn=manager,dc=exocore,dc=com" write
	by anonymous auth
	by self write
	by * none
