Description

Currently the LDAP auth backend is only able to change passwords if you are using Novell eDirectory or some OpenLDAP compatible server, but not if using MS Active Directory.

This patch adds support for that LDAP server. It assumes you have configured a LDAP+SSL connection to your AD server (otherwise AD doesn't allow any operation that modifies the directory) and that you are binding to AD with an account that has the right to reset other users' passwords.

Hi Petr,

I've seen MartinD has already patched 1.8 and HEAD with this, so I don't understand what you mean with 'helping you a bit again'. There is nothing else to do The expiration patch is for another bug report that I mistakenly uploaded to this one.

So you can close the bug (or mark it as fixed so the testers can check it).

Saludos. Iñaki.
