uid=admin

Hello,

Per the documentation
(http://directory.apache.org/apacheds/1.5/143-changing-the-admin-password.html).
 There is discussion about changing the admin password however after doing
an install I don't see this user in the directory.

I connected to the directory anonymous and I don't see uid=admin, ou=system.

Did I miss a step during install that created the admin user?

scott.

It's because you are connecting as anonymous : you can only look to the 
rootDSE, nothing else.

Just connect using "uid=admin, ou=system", password "secret" and then 
change the password.
