Password Self-serve Active Directory via LAMP environment

Question

I would like to be able to change active directory passwords via a Linux/Apache based webpage. This would be a self serve web page for the user. I have SSL-LDAP setup on the Active Directory to make this happen. Is there any project or code out there that will do this?

I've looked at this phpadadmin and I cannot get it to work. I think this is for IIS/php/mySQL

Another thing to note is I would like the user to authenticate to change their own password. The product/service should not need a privileged account to run.

Thanks Keith

I don't know of any pre-built solutions, but you could pretty easily create a web page which shells out and executes 'adtool'.

See a nice overview here:

Solution 2

phpadadmin is just a wrapper for adLDAP. http://adldap.sourceforge.net/

Both of which require the php-ldap extension be installed.

Solution 3

The LDAP Tool Box Self Service Password does exactly this. And it is open source!

Solution 4

For a paid solution, myPassword from Namescape handles this pretty nicely.

Solution 5

checkout this link, it should be possible to get phpldapadmin to tie in with an Active Directory server to get the job done.

Active Directory uses some sort of proprietary hashing. I dropped a similar project, unable to find a solution.

Looks like this is a webpage solution. However, this does not fulfill my requirements. I'm looking for something that runs in a Linux/Apache environment.

Editing your answer to add a link to those docs would be helpful.
