Robert,

You can use Persistent Searches to retrieve entries that are changing. Or you can search for all entries that have a ModifyTimestamp more recent than a specific date.

With the coming OpenDS 2.1 builds and 2.2 release, changes can also be made available under a cn=changelog naming context.

But for the user password, as it gets stored in a secure way in the server, there is no way to retrieve the cleartext value to sync it with another system. At least not right now. You're alternate solution is to write a custom plugin to capture password changes.

I hope this helps.

Regards,

Ludovic.

How can I find out when an attribute is updated? Or can I poll for some attribute timestamp?

For example, when a user changes password or user info, I need to trigger some code to retrieve the value and sync it to another system.

Thanks,
