Is there a way to update password using ldaprecord-laravel?

[leticiacolombo]

Hey guys, Is it possible to use this framework to update a password account? If it is, how can I do this? I coudn't find on the internet a way..

Hi @leticiacolombo,

Yes absolutely. After setting up your LDAP connection configuration via the config/ldap.php file, query for the user and attempt changing the passord:

use LdapRecord\Models\ActiveDirectory\User;

$user = User::findOrFail('cn=user,dc=local,dc=com');

$user->unicodepwd = ['old-password', 'new-password'];

$user->save();

Here are the docs:

https://ldaprecord.com/docs/core/v2/active-directory/users/#changing-passwords

OMG, I'm really sorry I didn't see it on the Docs!! It's working perfeclty now, Thank you!!!

Oh haha no worries @leticiacolombo! Really happy to hear that you're up and running now 👍

i'm getting this kind of result from :
$user = User::findOrFail('cn=Test,dc=Across,dc=local');
What might be causing this?

"message":"No LDAP query results for filter: [(&(objectclass=top)(objectclass=person)(objectclass=organizationalperson)(objectclass=user)(objectclass=*)(!(objectclass=computer)))] in: [cn=Test,dc=Across,dc=local]"}

@reyesmarkdaryl That just means the user could not be found by that distinguished name and those object classes in your directory.

The search works now after passing the correct distinguished name. Although i still cant edit. I'm getting :
ldap_start_tls(): Unable to start TLS: Server is unavailable. I have set:
'version' => 3,
'timeout' => 5,
'use_ssl' => false,
'use_tls' => true,

I also made this file on the server side:
C:\OpenLDAP\sysconf\ldap.conf

is there anything else that i might be missing?
