[PacketFence-users] User accounts

2017-06-06 Thread Jason 'XenoPhage' Frisvold via PacketFence-users
Greetings,

In a previous life, we used Packetfence for a campus network with
thousands of users.  The user database was a well established LDAP
directory that had been in existence for a while.

In my current life, however, we have no such database.  I'm looking for
a solution.  I was hoping to just have Packetfence serve as that
database, at least for now, but I don't see a way for users to manage
their accounts..  ie, how do they change passwords?  Is it better to
just pop up a local ldap instance and populate that?

Any thoughts appreciated!

Thanks,
