[horde] Problems with PASSWD and LDAP

Hi All,

I am attempting to configure PASSWD to reset my LDAP passwords on my new Horde 5 installation, just like it once existed on my Horde 3 installation.

I have the following backend configuration… matching my old one:

<?php
$backends['ldap'] = array(
    'disabled' => false,
    'name' => 'Courier Mail Server',
    'preferred' => 'courier.additionnetworks.net',
    'driver' => 'Ldap',
    'policy' => array(
        'minLength' => 6,
        'minNumeric' => 1,
    ),
    'params' => array(
        'host' => 'courier.additionnetworks.net',
        'port' => 389,
	'basedn' => 'ou=customers,dc=mecnet,dc=net',
        // LDAP object key attribute.
        'uid' => 'uid',
        // The attribute storing the password.
        //'attribute' => 'Password',
        // These attributes will enable shadow password policies.
        // 'shadowlastchange' => 'shadowLastChange',
        // 'shadowmin' => 'shadowMin',
        // This will be appended to the username when looking for the userdn.
        'realm' => '',
        // Use this filter when searching for the user's DN.
        'filter' => 'uid',
        // Hash method to use when storing the password
        'encryption' => 'crypt',
        // Whether to enable TLS for this LDAP connection
        // Note: make sure that the host matches cn in the server certificate.
        'tls' => false,
        // Determine the user's DN. %u will be replaced by the user's ID.
        // Alternatively, disable this option and instead use the 'userdn'
        // hook (config/hooks.php) to dynamically set the userdn.
        //'userdn' => 'uid=%u,ou=%d,ou=customers,dc=mecnet,dcnet'
    ),
);


When attempting to reset a password, I see this in my openldap logs:

On my Horde 3 installation with the same settings, I get these entries in my logs, which DO work:

Any guidance would be appreciated.
