Hello there, so I've been looking into setting up some account lockout policies in my enviroment. I have 2 multimaster 389ds servers with some 389ds consumer replicas. I've enable passwordIsGlobalPolicy in cn=config on all servers.

So if an account gets locked out when binding to a master, it is indeed locked out from the replicas. This functionality doesn't seem to flow in the opposite direction. If I get locked out on replica1, I can happily bind to replica2.

Since replication flows "down" from master to consumer, I don't think there is a way to get the lockout information passed "up" to the masters then back "down" to peer consumers, but figured I'd ask the list.

So, is there a way to pass account lockout information from consumer replicas back to masters? The end goal here is that if an account is locked out for too many failed attempts it is globally locked out.

You would have to set up something like chain on update for bind requests

Bind requests would be chained (pass through) to a master, and the actual updating of the attempt/lockout attributes would be done on a master, then replicated throughout your topology.


Thanks!
