You Can’t Unlock an LDAP Directory
To make changes in any directory domain, you must authenticate with the name and
password of an administrator of that directory. Thus, to edit an entry in a shared
LDAPv3 directory, you must authenticate in Workgroup Manager with the name and
password of an administrator account in that LDAPv3 directory. (An administrator
account in /Netinfo/root, which is the computer’s local directory, can’t be used to
authenticate as an administrator of a shared LDAP directory.)
You Can’t Modify a User’s Open Directory Password
To modify the password of a user whose password type is Open Directory, you must be
an administrator of the directory domain in which the user’s record resides. In addition,
your user account must have a password type of Open Directory. The user account
specified when the Open Directory master was set up (using Server Assistant or the
Open Directory service settings in Server Admin) has an Open Directory password. This
account can be used to set up other user accounts as directory domain administrators
with Open Directory passwords.
You Can‘t Change a User’s Password Type to Open Directory
To change a user’s password type to Open Directory authentication, you must be an
administrator of the directory domain in which the user’s record resides. In addition,
your user account must be configured for Open Directory authentication. The user
account specified when the Open Directory master was set up (using Server Assistant
or the Open Directory service settings in Server Admin) has an Open Directory
password. This account can be used to set up other user accounts as directory domain
administrators with Open Directory passwords.
You Can’t Assign Server Administrator Privileges
In order to assign server administrator privileges to a user for a particular server, first
connect to that server in Workgroup Manager. Select the user’s account (or create a
new account for the user) in a directory domain on that server, and select “User can
administer the server” on the Basic pane.
