The LDAP Tool Box project provides a set of LDAP-related applications, administrative tools, and other utilities. They have just released the 0.5 release of their Service Desk tool, which is a web application for administrators that supports viewing and managing accounts in an LDAP directory server. This release includes the following changes:
- Added support for PHP version 8 and higher
- Added an option for notifying users and administrators by email when a password is changed or reset
- Added an enable/disable button for forcing a user to reset their password upon authentication
- Added the ability to display DNs as links to the corresponding entries
- Improved support for displaying timestamps
- Improved support for displaying postal addresses
- Fixed an issue in which accounts could be locked when not using a password policy that has account lockout enabled
- Fixed an issue resulting from the application providing a string when an array was expected
Note that features for managing password policy state may only be available for certain types of directory servers.
