Hi,
Spec:
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.2 (Santiago)
ipa-admintools-2.1.3-9.el6.x86_64
ipa-client-2.1.3-9.el6.x86_64
ipa-pki-ca-theme-9.0.3-7.el6.noarch

Issue:
Firstly I'll declare someone must have seen this by now?
I've set the password policy to 99999;
[root@sysvm-ipa ~]# ipa pwpolicy-show
Group: global_policy
Max lifetime (days): 99999
Min lifetime (hours): 1
History size: 0
Character classes: 0
Min length: 6
Max failures: 6
Failure reset interval: 60
Lockout duration: 600
But old accounts are not getting the change at the ldap level, even
though IPA claims the expiry date has updated.
e.g.
[root@sysvm-ipa ~]# ipa pwpolicy-show --user=john
Group: global_policy
Max lifetime (days): 99999
Min lifetime (hours): 1
History size: 0
Character classes: 0
Min length: 6
Max failures: 6
Failure reset interval: 60
Lockout duration: 600
ldapsearch (command chopped)
# john, users, accounts, teratext.saic.com.au
dn: uid=john,cn=users,cn=accounts,dc=example,dc=com
krbPasswordExpiration: 20120506011529Z
So now when the user(s) logs in, I'm getting "password will expire in XX
days" messages.
Any ideas?
Can I globally update this somehow, otherwise I'll be re-typing
passwords for a while.
A password reset by admin always expires the password. I think once
the user first changes their password it will have the lifetime that
you specified.
You can force the expiration date using an ldapmodify command:
ldapmodify -x -D 'cn=directory manager' -W -h $IPA_SERVER -p 389 -vv
-f update_krbpasswordexpiration.ldif
Where the update_krbpasswordexpiration.ldif file contains:
dn: uid=$USERNAME,cn=users,cn=accounts,dc=example,dc=com
changetype: modify
replace: krbpasswordexpiration
krbpasswordexpiration: 20140202203734Z
You could do this as admin if you have a ticket so that you don't have
to enter the directory manager password.
This is great, thanks Dan.
BTW the equivalent command using a Kerberos ticket is:
$ ldapmodify -Y GSSAPI -h $IPA_SERVER -p 389 -vv -f
update_krbpasswordexpiration.ldif

Thanks great advice, so just to clarify, do the rear numbers just
represent hours, seconds etc?
e.g. krbpasswordexpiration: 20150101203734Z
krbpasswordexpiration: 20150101 [20 37 34 ?] Z (20=hour,37=min,34=sec]?
Yep, and Z indicates GMT.
Question is:
1) Should we document that (and provide a hint in `ipa pwpolicy` output)?
OR
2) Should ipa pwpolicy do update for all affected principals in LDAP? Just to
prevent confusion?
I like variant 2, because variant 1 seems to be confusing to me.
Craig, what is user opinion?
