Issue #4975 has been updated by Matteo Cerutti.


debug: User[xxxxx](provider=useradd): Executing '/usr/sbin/useradd 
............................ xxxxx'
debug: User[xxxxx](provider=useradd): Executing '/usr/bin/chage xxxxx'
err: /Stage[main]/Users::Production::xxxxx/User[xxxxx]/ensure: change from 
absent to present failed: Could not create user stdata: Execution of 
'/usr/bin/chage xxxxx' returned 3: Negative numbers are not allowed as input 
(except -1)
Changing aging information for xxxxx.
        Minimum Password Age [0]: 
Aging information not changed.

Therefore chage gets called even if min_password_age is not passed to the type.

Is this supposed to be the normal behavior?

Bug #4975: Password age issue in 2.6.2
http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/4975

Branch: 


Whenever I create a new user, using the latest puppet 2.6.2 I get the following 
error:

ensure: change from absent to present failed: Could not create user xxxxx: 
Execution of '/usr/bin/chage xxxxx' returned 3: Negative numbers are not 
allowed as input (except -1)
Changing aging information for xxxxx.
        Minimum Password Age [0]: 
Aging information not changed.

If I do specify the parameter min_password_age => 0 when calling the user type 
then the error goes away, but every time I run puppet it tells me that the 
minimum age of the password will be set to 0. I would not really want to manage 
any password ages.

Thanks,
Matteo
