Question

How can I reset a LDAP password in PHP?
I already have a connection to the LDAP Server.

Answer 1

Try the following code:

$dn = "uid=".$username.",dc=example,dc=com";
$newPassword = ...;
$newEntry = array('userpassword' => "{MD5}".base64_encode(pack("H*",md5($newPassword))));

if(ldap_mod_replace($ldapConnection, $dn, $newEntry))
    print "<p>succeded</p>";
else
    print "<p>failed</p>";
