Overview
Universal Password enables advanced password policies, including extended
characters in passwords, synchronization of passwords from eDirectory to
other systems, and a single password for all access to eDirectory.
In case the password policy permits administrators to retrieve user
passwords (“Allow admin to retrieve passwords” is set in the password
policy) this script can retrieve the password.
