[Kroupware] could not bind anonymously -- error

[Stephan Buys]

Hi Holger,

The way I fixed it was to assure that the password for "nobody" in=20
LDAP was indeed the ones in the file /kolab/etc/kolab/kolab.conf file (php_=
pw).=20
I found that somehow these passwords became out of sync...

You can use the OpenLDAP binaries to change the password or the=20
easy way is to get yourself a copy of LDAPbrowser=20
(http://www.iit.edu/~gawojar/ldap) which supports LDAP password changes=20
natively.

Regards,
Stephan
