Having the shadowLastChange attribute updated on password change is indeed a nice feature when using password expiry but not required in all environments. This has indeed been implemented in 0.8.0 but the 0.8 series is currently in experimental because it is still under development. For reference, the change that was implemented for 0.8.0 can be found here: http://lists.arthurdejong.org/nss-pam-ldapd-commits/2010/msg00302.html Unless you can make a strong argument to have this fixed in squeeze I don't think it will be fixed there. Anyway, thanks for reporting this. -- -- arthur - adej...@debian.org - http://people.debian.org/~adejong --
