I updated the kerberos libraries/tools on the CentOS 6.0 box using the Continuous Release repository, and then edited the ldap configuration to get around https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?format=multiple&id=713525 and users can now reset their passwords on that box during login and on the shell (kpasswd). I'm not sure which of these actually fixed the problem (if any).

He said he was updating the passwords with kpasswd, which should bypass
the pam stack and talk to the kpasswd deamon directly, right?
