pas.plugins.adpwchange 1.0

(Plone)PAS plugin to enable password changes in AD

Introduction

pas.plugins.adpwchange is a PAS plugin which allows Active Directory users to change their password.

This plugin does not offer any other Active Directory integration services: it relies on another plugin such as LDAPMultiPlugins or PloneLDAP to expose Active Directory accounts in Zope.

The Active Direction integration is done using the python-ad package. The python-ad package currently does not support OSX machines.

Configuration

The plugin needs to be configured for the active directory environment. It requires a default domain name that will be used for queries as well as credentials for an account that is allowed to make password changes.

The user id attribute and login attribute settings have to be configured to the same value as the LDAPMultiPlugins or PloneLDAP PAS plugin. If they are not in sync you may can unexepcted behaviour or errors.
