16.2.3 Using LDAP Authentication instead of GroupWise
Passwords
If your system administrator has turned on LDAP authentication, your LDAP password is used to
access your Mailbox instead of a GroupWise password. With LDAP authentication, you are required
to have a password and you cannot remove your password.
If your system administrator has disabled changing your LDAP password in GroupWise, you might
need to use a different application to change your password. Contact your system administrator for
more information.
