ldappasswd sets the password of associated with the user [or an optionally specified user ]. If the new password is not specified on the command line and the user doesn't enable prompting, the server will be asked to generate a password for the user.

ldappasswd is neither designed nor intended to be a replacement for passwd (1) and should not be installed as such.

-V [ V ] Print version info. If -VV is given, only the version information is printed.

-d debuglevel Set the LDAP debugging level to debuglevel. ldappasswd must be compiled with LDAP_DEBUG defined for this option to have any effect.

-n Do not set password. (Can be useful when used in conjunction with -v or -d)

-v Increase the verbosity of output. Can be specified multiple times.

-A Prompt for old password. This is used instead of specifying the password on the command line.

-a oldPasswd Set the old password to oldPasswd.

-t oldPasswdFile Set the old password to the contents of oldPasswdFile.

-S Prompt for new password. This is used instead of specifying the password on the command line.

-s newPasswd Set the new password to newPasswd.

-T newPasswdFile Set the new password to the contents of newPasswdFile.

-x Use simple authentication instead of SASL.

-D binddn Use the Distinguished Name binddn to bind to the LDAP directory. For SASL binds, the server is expected to ignore this value.

-W Prompt for bind password. This is used instead of specifying the password on the command line.

-w passwd Use passwd as the password to bind with.

-y passwdfile Use complete contents of passwdfile as the password for simple authentication.

-H ldapuri Specify URI(s) referring to the ldap server(s); only the protocol/host/port fields are allowed; a list of URI, separated by whitespace or commas is expected.

-h ldaphost Specify an alternate host on which the ldap server is running. Deprecated in favor of -H.

-p ldapport Specify an alternate TCP port where the ldap server is listening. Deprecated in favor of -H.

-e [ ! ] ext [ =extparam ]

-E [ ! ] ext [ =extparam ] Specify general extensions with -e and passwd modify extensions with -E. \'!\' indicates criticality. General extensions:

 [!]assert=<filter> (an RFC 4515 Filter)
 !authzid=<authzid> ("dn:<dn>" or "u:<user>")
 [!]bauthzid (RFC 3829 authzid control)
 [!]chaining[=<resolve>[/<cont>]]
 [!]manageDSAit
 [!]noop
 ppolicy
 [!]postread[=<attrs>] (a comma-separated attribute list)
 [!]preread[=<attrs>] (a comma-separated attribute list)
 [!]relax
 sessiontracking
 abandon,cancel,ignore (SIGINT sends abandon/cancel,
 or ignores response; if critical, doesn't wait for SIGINT.
 not really controls)

Passwd Modify extensions:

 (none)

-o opt [= optparam ]] Specify general options. General options:

 nettimeout=<timeout> (in seconds, or "none" or "max")
 ldif-wrap=<width> (in columns, or "no" for no wrapping)

-O security-properties Specify SASL security properties.

-I Enable SASL Interactive mode. Always prompt. Default is to prompt only as needed.

-Q Enable SASL Quiet mode. Never prompt.

-N Do not use reverse DNS to canonicalize SASL host name.

-U authcid Specify the authentication ID for SASL bind. The form of the ID depends on the actual SASL mechanism used.

-R realm Specify the realm of authentication ID for SASL bind. The form of the realm depends on the actual SASL mechanism used.

-X authzid Specify the requested authorization ID for SASL bind. authzid must be one of the following formats: dn: "<distinguished name>" or u: <username>.

-Y mech Specify the SASL mechanism to be used for authentication. If it's not specified, the program will choose the best mechanism the server knows.

-Z [ Z ] Issue StartTLS (Transport Layer Security) extended operation. If you use -ZZ, the command will require the operation to be successful
