• Hi, if you change your password in Joomla my Joomla user plugin will forward this password change to Zimbra. I have not implemented any way of passing a Zimbra password change back to Joomla. If you want this functionality then you will have to use LDAP authentication in Joomla using Zimbra as the LDAP server. Richard.

• Sorry, I wasnt clear in what I said. If you are using LDAP for authentication in Joomla and Zimbra is your LDAP Server, then if you change your password in Zimbra, you can use that new password to logon to Joomla. Not because the new password is "pushed" back to Joomla but because Joomla authenticates your logon using the Zimbra LDAP Server which knows your new password.

• Something got erased in my last post...
  
  Are you saying that the Joomla ldap authentication plugin will update the local Joomla user record if it finds one with whatever password was successful in the ldap process?
  
  That's what I was trying to type out.
