Description Nalin Dahyabhai 2007-11-02 19:22:06 UTC
Description of problem:
When configured to use the "exop_send_old" password-change method, pam_ldap
attempts to change the password using an exop request, and then proceeds to try
again using ldap_modify.

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Configured pam_ldap with "pam_password exop_send_old"
2. Change youre password using pam_ldap.
  
Actual results:
A spurious "pam_ldap: ladp_modify_s blah blah blah" error is usually generated.
