[python-ldap] password change for multivalued userpasssword

[Demicoli Darren at MITA]

Dear all

 

When changing a user password using the passwd_s() function, the old
password can be specified.  Now since the userpassword attribute is a
multivalued attribute, I was assuming that for an ldap entry with
multiple passwords, if the old password is specified in the passwd_s(),
this would change only that particular password. However, if this is
done, all the user passwords are removed and only the entry for the new
password remains. 

 

Is this limitation coming from python-ldap or from the directory server
exop?

 

Thanks a lot.

-Darren
