Issue #10915 has been updated by Michael Bryant.
I have 3 aix providers, in provider/group, provider/package and provider/user, but I assume these will only get called for their respective types. Can't find another aix provider anywhere on the system Is it relevant that there isn't an entry for password in the self.attribute_mapping list in the aix provider? ---------------------------------------- Bug #10915: Managing passwords under AIX doesn't work https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/10915 Author: Michael Bryant Status: Unreviewed Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: provider Target version: Affected Puppet version: 2.7.6 Keywords: AIX user provider puppet password Branch: <pre> err: /Stage[main]/Root_user/User[root]/password: change from [old password hash redacted] to [new password hash redacted] failed: The aix provider can not handle attribute password at /etc/puppet/modules/root_user/manifests/init.pp:35 </pre> A cursory look at the source shows that the aix user provider has the feature manages_passwords, but doesn't have the password attribute listed as being managed config: user { "root": ensure => "present", uid => "0", gid => "system", comment => "Super-User", home => "/", shell => "/usr/bin/ksh", password => 'REDACTED' } -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
