Commits: 6285668c by Randall Mason at 2021-06-27T20:18:24+00:00 ITS#8903 - Add option to bind early in ldappasswd ldappasswd is slightly different from a standard passwd workflow in that it requests an old password, then a new password, then the old password again. This confuses people who are used to the unix passwd tool as well as people who use password manager. I've seen quite a few people who have generated a new password, overwriting the old one, and then need a password reset because they still need to bind to modify their password. This patch adds an option to bind at the beginning of the process so that you can pass '-E' to ldappasswd and it will bind early in the process so that the process is the same as the standard passwd. All it does is run the bind towards the beginning of the process instead of the end. The attached patch file is derived from OpenLDAP Software.
