PAM configuration for changing password on LDAP client machine
I have configured LDAP server on RHEL 5.2 Linux.
Client is unable to change its password from client linux box. I think there is PAM configuration problem in /etc/pam.d/system-auth file. What will be the exact entries in this file. help |
Do you have an ACL in LDAP to allow the user to change the password?

thanks for response:
I am using the following ACL. With this ACL client can change its password with passwd comman while loggin to the server directly while prompting the old password, but not in the case of client machine. #access to * by self write by users read by anonymous auth #ACL through which we can change user password on Server with passwd command. access to dn.subtree="ou=People,dc=example,dc=com" attrs=userpassword by self write by anonymous auth by * none access to * by * read #ACL obtained by Gentoo access to attrs="userPassword" by dn="uid=root,ou=People,dc=example,dc=com" write by dn="uid=testuser,ou=People,dc=example,dc=com" write by anonymous auth by self write by * none access to * by dn="uid=root,ou=People,dc=example,dc=com" write by * search |
ok I got it. Actually it was problem of my distribution.
command to change password is /usr/bin/passwd |
