Command options:

-a | --authzID {authzID}

Authorization ID for the user entry whose password should be changed. The authorization ID is a string having either the prefix "dn:" followed by the user's distinguished name, or the prefix "u:" followed by a user identifier that depends on the identity mapping used to match the user identifier to an entry in the directory. Examples include "dn:uid=bjensen,ou=People,dc=example,dc=com", and, if we assume that "bjensen" is mapped to Barbara Jensen's entry, "u:bjensen".

-c | --currentPassword {currentPassword}

Current password for the target user.

-C | --currentPasswordFile {file}

Path to a file containing the current password for the target user.

--connectTimeout {timeout}

-F | --newPasswordFile {file}

Path to a file containing the new password to provide for the target user.

-J | --control {controloid[:criticality[:value|::b64value|:<filePath]]}

Use a request control with the provided information.

For some controloid values, you can replace object identifiers with user-friendly strings. The strings are listed here in lower case, but the case is not important. You can use camelCase if you prefer, for example.
