Steps to change directory bind ID password:
1) BIND to the directory using your current password.
2) Specify the modify password attribute for your Bind ID.
Note : In production you should bind to master.directory.cornell.edu. In test, you should bind to
testmaster.cit.cornell.edu. We periodically refresh test from prod, so Bind IDs in test will get their
production password.
This technique uses the ldapmodify client. It can easily be adapted to
other techniques that update an ldap directory. If you don't have access to
an ldapmodify client, contact us at aadssupport@cornell.edu. We don't want you downloading random
software and typing in a password with access to sensitive data. For any questions please contact aadssupport@cornell.edu
Eample :
$ cat > chpw.dat
dn: "Your Bind DN"
changetype: modify
replace: userpassword
userpassword: newpassword
$ ldapmodify -h master.directory.cornell.edu -D "Your Bind DN" -w oldpassword -f chpw.dat
