ldapsetpasswd(1)	     General Commands Manual		ldapsetpasswd(1)

NAME
     ldapsetpasswd - modifies a POSIX user account's password in LDAP.

SYNOPSIS
     ldapsetpasswd <username|uid> [encodedpassword]

OPTIONS
     <username | uid>
	    The name or uid of the user whose password has to be modified.

     [encoded password]
	    If specified this way, the password will be copied verbatim into the
	    LDAP  directory.  If not specified, you will be prompted for a pass-
	    word that will be changed using the ldappasswd(1) command.

SEE ALSO
     ldapfinger(1), ldapid(1), ldapgid(1), ldapscripts(5).

AVAILABILITY
     The ldapscripts are provided under the GNU General Public License	v2  (see
     COPYING for more details).  The latest version of the ldapscripts is avail-
     able on : http://contribs.martymac.org

LIMITATIONS
     When  used  interactively, passwords generated with this command are propa-
     gated with the ldappasswd(1) command.  Thus, the resulting  format  depends
     on the 'password-hash' option of your server's slapd.conf(5) file.

     You  can  always  force  an encoded password (using the hash format of your
     choice) by specifying it on the command line.

BUGS
     No bug known.
