Log onto Cloud Computing with old and new password of Active Directory

Asked By jobert bridges 30 points N/A Posted on - 01/12/2012

Zimbra 5.0 has been integrated with the Active Directory. The password in the Active Directory was changed. 

Why is it that I can still log on to Cloud Computing by Zimbra GUI using both old and new passwords.

Log onto Cloud Computing with old and new password of Active Directory

That may be because the old password has been set to remain in the active directory even after replacing it with another new password, and therefore when you use it for logging it will still go through. What I will suggest here is that you check both the zimbra settings and the active directory and see if the passwords are being stored after they are changed instead of being blocked or got rid off. If there are any such settings you will need to change then appropriately. Another thing that you might try to do is restart the zimbra server to refresh the settings and see what will happen.
