Can user change LDAP password throuth jira connected to crowd connected to MS Active Directory

Alex Kiselev _Itransition_ December 26, 2012

Crowd 2.5.0 connected to MS Active Directory

directory type " Microsoft Active Directory ", all permissions are ticked

user for synchronisation has administrative rights in AD

Jira 5.1.4 connected to Crowd

Crowd permissions "Read only"

If I change crowd permission to "Read/Write" - will this make possible changing AD user password throuth jira?

yes if you have enabed read/write permissions for crowd in JIRA and in turn enable all the permissions in the ldap directoy i crowd then changes effected through JIRA will go all the way to LDAP as well

I want to note that AD does require a secured connection for password changes, so you'll likely have to setup SSL for this to work, more info:

Hi Alex,

Another pointer, please ensure that the LDAP user used by Crowd to bind the LDAP server has the necessary permission to write into your LDAP server.
