TIM Password Change

Hi All

I am trying to change a password via a DSML connector into Tivoli Identity 
Manager (TIM)

Is it possible @ all???
How should I go about doing this ?

Kind Regards
DAN 

Dan,

my question is: which password do you want to change in TIM? Is it the 
TIM user account password (TIM service)? Or another one? Or all 
passwords of the user?

You could use the event notification mechanism supported by DSML2/DAML 
to update the account(s) of the user with the new password. This will 
work for any account for which there are DSML2 or DAML agents. Note that 
although you use the same TDI connectors than for HR Feed -i.e a JNDI 
connector, you would configure it to connect to the 'naming context' 
(search base) that corresponds to the service profile in TIM. So 
typically NOT dc=hrfeed.

Also, you could use the TIM 'password reset' servlet to set the password 
to an account. There is a TIMPwSynch connector that exists and it ships 
with the RACF adapter... perhaps you want to check it out as it 
generates the right HTTP request to the servlet for you.

These techniques work for setting individual passwords - not all 
passwords for all accounts used by the person at once.

HTH,

Christian
