Zimbra & Moodle Authentication

Hello,
I am just starting to research Zimbra working along side of Moodle. I am wondering if anyone has done this:
I would like to authenticate my Moodle Learning Content Management System Users off of the Zimbra LDAP.
Moodle Supports LDAP authentication. Currently, I do not know the LDAP password on my Zimbra server. If I reset this password to something else, will my Mail server still work?
Any thoughts ideas etc would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Brent Lee

zmldappasswd

Usage: $ zmldappasswd [ --root ] newpassword
By default, this script changes zimbra_ldap_password. If the --root

option is specified, then ldap_root_passwd is changed. In both cases,

slapd.conf is modified and zimbra.ldif reloaded.

Will running this command do anything to impact my current configurations?

Well it will change your LDAP Root password, but you don't use that much. Zimbra may, but you won't notice anything.
