Dear Francesco, Can you please send me your phone or any communication tools like Skype, Am sorry but I get more confused.

We updated to AES, we changed again the password for the user and we tried to login again to the enduser portal. It's working, we tried to connect to AD but without success. We realized after that the password, with a difference with the other fields, is not immediately propagate when changed, but it's only propagated by the scheduler. No, this is not correct. The password is always sent along with all other attributes, both during propagation (automated provisioning) or push (manual provisioning). The only difference is that, since the password values are never stored as cleartext into the internal storage, the actual value is available during propagation but must be retrieved from the internal storage during push. When using AES, the encrypted value from the internal storage can be decrypted and sent to AD. Now, there could always be some bug that prevents the push flow to correctly retrieve and send password values: as soon as I'll have some available slots, I could take a look at this. Regards.

This is of course not the goal, but before moving to an automatic provision of accounts we want the manual one working What is your value for the 'password.cipher.algorithm' general configuration parameter? If not 'AES', pushing password values (as any other encrypted value) will not work anyway. The point is that Active Directory requires cleartext password values (encrypted via ConnId's GuardedString), which are normally available only during user update, not later. This unless AES (e.g. reversible encryption) is set for internal password values. Provisioning - via resource assignment - is part of user update, push occurs after user update. Regards.

This is what I suspected: you could definitely find a confirmation if you are able to verify that the user on Active Directory has still the password set during create (while on Syncope the password value was changed). How are you associating the users to the AD resource? Directly or via group? Could you please enlist your full connector configuration (with *all* options) and resource mapping?

If the Admin tries to reset the password from the console, or if the user tries to change is password from the enduser interface, the password is still correctly updated into Syncope, but it's not propagated to AD, therefore the user will be able to login only using the old password. Hi, I am not completely familiar with AD password management internals, but I would examine what Syncope is actually sending to AD by watching the core-connid.log file both when creating new user and updating existing user, to determine if Syncope is effectively sending the updated password to AD during the latter phase.

The AD user that we are using is able to change the passwords of other AD users, create, update and delete other users. I think that there is an additional step that was not performed in Syncope.

We know that the connection is working because we are still able to propagate the user modification like firstname and lastname. We can change the password and internally is working, but it's not propagated to AD. When you performed the change password by using the administration console, did you select AD resource in the list provided after password fields? Are you sure that the user principal configured to perform updates into AD owns all the needed entitlements? the On 27/01/2017 15:42, Fabio Martelli wrote: Hi, find my comment in-line. Regards, F.

We are able to check the connectivity both using plain and SSL, we are able to create new users and to update information like email, first name and last name. We edit the connector: * We check SSL * we change the Server port to 636 * We enable Trust all certs We run again some modification and the first name and last name are still updated. We try now to change the password, both from user and admin interface. The user can correctly access to Syncope using the new credentials, while we detect that the password is not correctly propagated to the target system. Do you mean that you can still access with the previous one? Please note that you can change password by working in SSL only [1]. Regards, F.
