Generally, it works fine except for the case when user passes its own user name. Do we want to support the following way? # klist Ticket cache: FILE:/tmp/krb5cc_0 Default principal: f...@idm.lab.bos.redhat.com Valid starting Expires Service principal 09/23/11 09:48:05 09/24/11 09:48:05 krbtgt/idm.lab.bos.redhat....@idm.lab.bos.redhat.com # ipa passwd fbar New Password: Enter New Password again to verify: ipa: ERROR: Insufficient access: Invalid credentials Maybe we could throw an error when user passes its own principal to ipa passwd command. After all, this argument is for changing _other_ user passwords.
