|
|||
|
|
Unix and Samba passwords of your users. If you set the <a class="link" href="ch03.html#s_accessLevel">access level</a> to "Change passwords" then
|
|||
|
|
LAM will not allow any changes to the LDAP database except password
|
|||
|
|
changes via this page. The account pages will be still available in
|
|||
|
|
read-only mode.</p><p>You can open the password reset page by clicking on the key symbol
|
|||
|
|
on each user account:</p><div class="screenshot"><div class="mediaobject"><img src="images/passwordReset1.png"></div></div><p>There are three different options to set a new
|
|||
|
|
password:</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc"><li><p><span class="bold"><strong>set random password and display it on
|
|||
|
|
screen</strong></span></p><p>This will set the user's password to a random value. The
|
|||
|
|
password will be 11 characters long with a random combination of
|
|||
|
|
letters, digits and ".-_".</p><p>You may want to use this method to tell users their new
|
|||
|
|
passwords via phone.</p></li><li><p><span class="bold"><strong>set random password and mail it to
|
|||
|
|
user</strong></span></p><p>If the user account has set the mail attribute then LAM can
|
|||
|
|
send your user a mail with the new password. You can change the mail
|
|||
|
|
template to fit your needs. See the help link for further
|
|||
|
|
details.</p><p>Using this method will prevent that your support staff knows
|
|||
|
|
the new password.</p></li><li><p><span class="bold"><strong>set specific password</strong></span></p><p>Here you can specify your own password.</p></li></ul></div><div class="screenshot"><div class="mediaobject"><img src="images/passwordReset2.png"></div></div><p>LAM will display contact information about the user like the
|
|||
|
|
user's name, email address and telephone number. This will help your
|
|||
|
|
deskside support to easily contact your users.</p><p>If a user account has Samba passwords set then LAM will offer to
|
|||
|
|
synchronize the passwords.</p></div><div class="navfooter"><hr><table width="100%" summary="Navigation footer"><tr><td width="40%" align="left"><a accesskey="p" href="ch03.html">Prev</a><EFBFBD></td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="u" href="ch03.html">Up</a></td><td width="40%" align="right"><EFBFBD></td></tr><tr><td width="40%" align="left" valign="top">Chapter<EFBFBD>3.<2E>Access levels and passwort reset<65></td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="h" href="index.html">Home</a></td><td width="40%" align="right" valign="top"><EFBFBD></td></tr></table></div></body></html>
