Hi all,
I am new to this Python-LDAP API and am currently learning and working 
on it. I, the LDAP admin, want to set the password of a LDAP user after 
binding as the admin user. I came across passwd_s() method which can be 
used to change the user password, but requires the old password too. As 
an admin, I should be able to reset the LDAP passwords of users whose 
current passwords I do not know. Is there a way to do this?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Guruprasad
