Directory administrators are often asked to create, reset, or remove passwords for other users. The ldappasswordmodify utility enables you to change or reset a user’s password.

The next code assumes that the user remembers his/her existing password and the new password is passed to the server.

ldappasswordmodify –hostname localhost –port 389 –bindDN “cn=Directory Manager” –bindPassword Password1dm –authzID u:pwmuser –currentPassword pnx50okb –newPassword Password1dm

After executing the server will return

The LDAP password modify operation was successful
