Re: [Freeipa-users] Password policy for admin account not working

2015-01-14 Thread sipazzo
Thank you Rob. That makes sense but I could have sworn I changed the policy 
before expiration. Resetting it did indeed resolve the issue though. Sorry for 
the headache.

 Password policy for
 expiration is applied at the time the password is
 changed/set, not retroactively, so you may just
 need to reset the
 password on those
 accounts.
 
 To see what
 policy will be applied to a give user do:
 
 $ ipa pwpolicy-show
 --user=someuser

Password policy for expiration is applied at the time the password is
changed/set, not retroactively, so you may just need to reset the
password on those accounts.

$ ipa pwpolicy-show --user=someuser

[Freeipa-users] Password policy for admin account not working

2015-01-12 Thread sipazzo

Good morning, I created a "service" password policy that prevents password 
expiration and gave it a priority of 0. I then created a "service" user group 
and applied the policy to the group. I added my admin user to this group so 
their password would not expire. However, it continues to expire anyway. I have 
other (not built-in) accounts that use this policy successfully so it seems 
like the priority is not working correctly. I am unable to change the priority 
on the global_policy. Is my only option to add another policy with the same 
config as the global policy but a lower priority and assign that to all my 
users?
