My name is c.s.r.c.murthy. Iam trying to implement Centralized
Authenticaiton based on openldap in a cluster RedHat-7.2 systems. I have

observed the following while doing so.

    1.    If I compile the openldap without ssl support the
"lutil_passwd" functions in libraries/liblutil/passwd.c file is
returning a value "0"  whenever I try to change the password of a user.
The operation is becoming successful also.

    2.    If I compile the openldap with ssl support the "lutil_passwd"
function is returning a value "1" whenver I try to change the password
of a user. The operation fails saying "Invalid credentials"

        Also in the latter case even if I disable ssl in both server and

client (using slapd and ldap  configuration) The result is same.
(lutil_passwd returns '1').

The lutil_passwd has nothing to do with ssl mechanism, as I have gone
through the source file. But why it is behaving differently in each
case?
