How to implement forgotten password

[xavier lhomme]

What are you trying to do?

Hi I want to implement/configure a function to help an user to obtain a new password if he has forgetten his password.

What have you done?

I've SimpleSamlPhp connected as an IdP  with my OpenLDAP. 

I've 2 SP : Drupal and Portal for ArcGIS.

Is there anything wrong?

It's our my first attemp with SImpleSamlPph : it's works !

Is there anything you don't understand?

I don't have a clue to start with.

best regards

SimpleSAMLphp does not provide anything like that, basically because it’s completely agnostic on what authentication source you use, and such a functionality depends completely on that.

If you want to be able to do something like that, you’ll need to implement it yourself in an authentication source.

You could try Self Service Password by LTB which is available at https://ltb-project.org/documentation/self-service-password  

Please note that this project is not associated/related with SimpleSAMLphp and it's a separate standalone PHP application. We were using it for last couple of years and found it really useful.
