Hi List Members I'm using OpenLDAP in a translucent overlay configuration to store the attributes for our custom schema. All other attributes come from the backend LDAP server(ActiveDirectory). When I try to modify an attribute that is stored on the backend LDAP Server(ActiveDirectory), the change is stored in the translucent overlays database and not written to the backend LDAP server(ActiveDirectory). Is it possible for a client connected to OpenLDAP to modify an attribute in the backend LDAP server(ActiveDirectory)? The attribute I'm mainly concerned with is "unicodePwd" which Active Directory uses for password storage. If this isn't possible, does anyone have a different approach I'm missing? Background: Were creating a password reset web app that I'd like to only communicate to OpenLDAP. OpenLDAP will store of password question/answer along with some other identity verification data, but the password needs to be set within Active Directory since there are Desktops authenticating users.
