I'm hoping there's somebody out there with some LDAP experience. I've
run across something for which I haven't found an answer on Google.
I recently tried to use the passwd lock function on an account and
received the following:
[root@testbox root]$ passwd -l tuser
Locking password for user tuser.
passwd: Error (password not set?)
That smells of a bug in passwd, since all "-l" does is put a "!" in
front of the password. It's possible that the system is not escaping
the "!" and is trying to background a task or bring up an old command.
