How to unlock a locked user in openldap

Question

We have a user who locked itself by using a faulty password.

We have a standard openldap install following the LTS server guide.

The locked user has an extra attribute now that it got locked:

pwdAccountLockedTime: 201702161256Z

Here you can find how to unlock openldap password

Set pwdLockoutDuration attribute to some amount; the value is in seconds. I think that by default it is 0 (infinite).

Unlock the account manually without need for resetting the password by removing the operational attribute pwdAccountLockedTime.
