Password Synchronization with Novell eDirectory (openLDAP)

Password Synchronization with Novell eDirectory (openLDAP)

How do you setup an openLDAP Password Sync? Specifically I want to link an old Novell eDirectory (more or less openLDAP) change the passwords at the same time.

I've followed the documentation (what I can find) and it doesn't really seem to be the right.
The "Domain Name" in the example say (dc=example,dc=com) but we use (o=companyname)
As for the user, the FQDN would be (cn=admin,ou=admins,o=companyname) but I eventually tried just cn=admin,ou=admins hoping that it would append the "Domain Name" Which it seemed to do.

Then I move to "Account Linking", and I run into the problem how how to set this up?
If I disable "Auto Account Linking", the system doesn't change that systems password!
If I enable "Auto Account Linking", the system always fails when reseting the password
And the options once I've "enabled" it don't make any sense for an LDAP system!

Any ideas?
Thanks
Bob



However when I change a password, it doesn't appear in the list of systems where the password changed.
