API to verify a resource Password? Like pass through authentication...

Howdy folks,

OK. I have a requirement to check the old (or current) password of a user at the time that they change there password to something new. I can do this with lighthouse accounts, but.... We don't update Lighthouse accounts. We only update our LDAP account. I know that pass through authentication checks this automatically by attempting to bind as the user with the given password. Does anyone know if I can ask IDM to do that for me? If not I'll write a java class to do it, but since it is already happening in IDM, I thought there MUST be something in place that can do this already....

Does anyone know?
