LDAP Sync on Password Change #393

Closed jsayles closed 6 years ago

jsayles commented 6 years ago

Login to Nadine Change your password Run ldap_sync observed: No changes found expected: change found and ldap server updated.

I can force an ldap sync (--force) and it will update the server correctly but it does not detect the password change as an actual change.

Was this on a local machine or on a server?

I just tested this again on my local system and confirmed it to be working as expected. I suspect there's a configuration issue (the configuration is not as straight-forward as it ideally could be...)

I think the key here is that I changed the password in the Django shell. I was on Nadine01, ran ldap_sync, opened the shell, pulled up the user, called set_password() and save() and then ran ldap_sync again. I did it this way because the apache install isn't working currently so I couldn't use the interface.

This is not a usual way of changing a password but it's worth keeping in mind. I'm going to close this issue and we can review again if this turns out to be a problem.
