[Fedora-directory-users] Linux password change/expiration issue

[Kyle Tucker]

Bingo. In the admin console, I manually edited the top domain in the
Directory tab using Set Access Permissions and Enable self write for
common attributes, and added shadowLastChange and it updates fine 
along with userPassword now. Thanks so much.

aci: (targetattr = "carLicense ||description ||displayName ||facsimileTelephon
 eNumber ||homePhone ||homePostalAddress ||initials ||jpegPhoto ||labeledURL |
 |mail ||mobile ||pager ||photo ||postOfficeBox ||postalAddress ||postalCode |
 |preferredDeliveryMethod ||preferredLanguage ||registeredAddress ||roomNumber
  ||secretary ||seeAlso ||st ||street ||telephoneNumber ||telexNumber ||title

 x500UniqueIdentifier") (version 3.0;acl "Enable self write for common attribu
 tes";allow (write)(userdn = "ldap:///self");)
