Issue #1025 has been updated by Nigel Kersten. Status changed from Accepted to Closed Assignee changed from Jeff McCune to Nigel Kersten
This was resolved quite a while ago when we moved to supplying the whole hash in the password field. ---------------------------------------- Feature #1025: Directory Service Provider: Password Setting is Looping https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/1025 Author: Jeff McCune Status: Closed Priority: Normal Assignee: Nigel Kersten Category: Darwin Target version: unplanned Patch: None Affected Puppet version: 0.25.4 Keywords: Branch: The directory service provider currently cannot properly check if a password is set for a local account. I'd like to add a number enhancements related to user passwords: - Use the dirt system command to check the cleartext password. - Make sure dirt does not have the cleartext passphrase in the process table. We might leverage ruby's expect module and popen3, though finding out the exit status of the process is not clear to me using this method. - Check and set the shadow hash directly. - Mac OS X defaults to Salted SHA passwords in /var/db/shadow/hash files named after the GUID. - We might simply embed {SSHA}XXXXXXXXX...X strings directly into a [[DirectoryService]] attribute of the user account. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
