In the likely common event that we forgot the password of an specific user, we need to reset it.\
|
||||
In this example we forgot the _plain password_ of the _uid_ marisa, we can reset it with this command:

root@example:/etc/ldap# ldappasswd -H ldap:/// -x -D "cn=admin,dc=example,dc=com" -W -S "uid=marisa,ou=Supergirls,dc=example,dc=com"
|

New password: newpasswd
