13        $ldap = Net::LDAP->new( "ldap.mydomain.eg" );

DESCRIPTION

25       "Net::LDAP::Extension::SetPassword" implements the "Modify Password"
26       extended LDAPv3 operation as described in RFC 3062.
27
28       It implements no object by itself but extends the Net::LDAP object by
29       another method:

METHODS

32       set_password ( OPTIONS )
33           Set the password for a user.
34
35           OPTIONS is a list of key/value pairs. The following keys are
36           recognized:
37
38           user
39               If present, this option contains the octet string
40               representation of the user associated with the request.
41               Depending on how users are identified in the directory this
42               string may or may not be a DN according to RFC 4514.
43
44               If this option is not present, the request acts up upon the
45               password of the user currently associated with the LDAP
46               session.
47
48           oldpasswd
49               This option, if present, must contain the current password of
50               the user for whom this operation is performed.
51
52               It depends on the server's implementation in which cirumstances
53               this option is allowed to be missing.
54
55           newpasswd
56               If present, this option contains the desired password for the
57               user for whom the operation is performed.
58
59               Depending on the server's implementation this option may be
60               required by the LDAP server.
61
62       gen_password ( )
63           Return the password generated by the server in response to the
64           "set_password()" call when applicable. The server will not generate
65           a new password if "newpasswd" was passed to "set_password()".
66
67           This method is a method of the Net::LDAP::Message response object
68           returned in reply to "set_password()" in case the "set_password()"
69           call succeeded.
70
71           By this method the caller can query for the value of the password
72           in case he did not call "set_password()" with the "newpasswd"
73           option.
