Hi.. Why is it that when I try to change my password,

$Passwd
$Old Password:
$New Passwword:


I received a LDAP ERROR?

How this is possible?

What is the LDAP error? If you are using LDAP, perhaps your account does not have permissions to change the password.

When the system ask for my old password and then to enter my new password and lastly to confirm the password,

the system will give the message:

LDAP processing error. - I don't know what it means to say.

Are you using LDAP for your authentication?
