Adding Password Policy with a use of CoS

Hi all,
I am trying to add a new password policy for our suffixes 1,2 ,3. I have read the DS 6.3 Admin manual P # 182. I am bit confused. Can some one write me sequence of steps.
For example: step1: add a new policy for ou=suffix1,o=com
step2: add new policy to DS, etc....
I have tried the example from the manual but it seems the syntax is wrong in the book. I am getting Invalid DN syntax error ...for CoS
dn: cn="cn=TempFilter,ou=people,dc=suffix1,dc=com",
cn=PolTempl,dc=suffix1,dc=com
Q#2: Does this new policy applies to existing users or the new users?
TIA

The following ldif is working for me. It set the ExternalUsersPolicy password policy to all users from o=SUBORG
dn: cn=SUBORGUsersPolicyFilter,o=SUBORG,dc=company,dc=org
objectclass: top
objectclass: LDAPsubentry
objectclass: nsRoleDefinition
objectclass: nsComplexRoleDefinition

objectclass: top

Password Policy with DSCC (DSEE)

Hi all,
I am creating security policies with the interface DSCC (Directory service control center).
In Password Policies there are two types of policies (Global / Built in)
properties of these policies are in ldap
Global
ldapsearch -x -D "cn=Directory Manager" -w admin123 -b "cn=Password Policy,cn=config" objectclass=*
Built-in
ldapsearch -x -D "cn=Directory Manager" -w admin123 -b "cn=Password Policy,cn=replication manager,cn=replication,cn=config" objectclass=*
But, if I create a new policy under cn = PolicyTemp,dc = example, dc = cl, you can not find it by querying ldap?
it does not deliver results
ldapsearch -x D "cn=Directory Manager" -w admin123 -b "cn=PolicyTemp,dc=example,dc=cl" objectclass=*

Hi,
I found the answer, the LDAP query is :
ldapsearch -x -D "cn=Directory Manager" -w admin123 -b "dc=example,dc=cl" "(&(objectclass=ldapsubentry)(cn=TempPolicy))"
Thanks

Introducing a custom Password policy to expire passwords. odsee 11g - what are the expected results

We have left the default Password Policy untouched. As a default password aging is off. Our DS compatibility mode is now DS6 so we can add Password Policies with max age!
Some users need to have their passwords changed regularly due to political reasons.
We have introduced a custom Password Policy which has a pwd_Max_age value of 180 days and allows the user to Change Password. Entry is cn=Custom Pwd Policy for ABC,dc=mycorp,dc=com
Ok. Now we get confused by the behaviour of this ODSEE 11g server. Now, we are ADDING a new custom Password Policy to just a few selected users!
1. When we add the Policy to the user by setting the passwordpolicysubentry attribute = "cn=Custom Pwd Policy for ABC,dc=mycorp,dc=com"
- Nothing seems to happen.
- WHEN IS THE PASSWORD EXPIRED?
2. After we change a password for a user who has the passwordpolicysubentry attribute, he gains a new attribute pwdChangedTime
- IS THIS THE ONLY TIME THE EXPIRY CLOCK STARTS TICKING? *AFTER* THE PASSWORD IS CHANGED?
3. Is it true, that if a user never changes his password, even if he gets the new custom password policy applied, his password never automatically expires????
I just cannot work out what is supposed to happen. I would have hoped that at the very least, the password begins to expires as soon as he gets a Password Policy with pwd_Max_age set.
How is ODSEE 11g designed/supposed to function.
Help!!!!!
*HH

Sylvain ,Many thanks for your reply and suggestions. Always good to have a choice!
So it seems the only way to get the password aging clock to tick is for the password to be changed after having the password policy applied.
Option1 is not really an option although it certainly would make the users change the password and set up the password aging...
The main difficulty with odsee 11g (Version 11.1.1.7.0) is that pwdChangedTime is a system read-only attribute linked to a modification to userPassword attribute, I cannot use ldapmodify to add/modify the pwdChangedTime attribute.
I was amazed that I can read/store the userpassword as the base64 string and replace the userpassword attribute with this value using ldapmodify. This is very easy (and works!) but will cause the pwdChangedTime attribute to contain the same time for all users. I can imagine helpdesk loving it when everyone calls them in 6 months time.
Using the LDIF backup/restore utility looks the best option, if it succeeds. At least we can randomize the actual value of pwdChangedTime with this approach.

Password Policy on Directory Server 11.1.1.7.2

Hi,
I'm trying to set up a password policy with DS 11.1.1.7.2 but it doesn't seem to be getting applied to the users. I went through the DSCC gui and created a new policy that is supposed to remember the last 3 passwords and also expire in a couple days just for test purposes. I then set the compatibility mode to Directory Server 6 and clicked on "Assign Policy" and selected ou=people,o=xxxxxx,o=isp where my test accounts are.
I've then tried using ldapmodify using the credentials to the accounts who's passwords I'm changing and it allows me to reuse the same passwords. I saw something about using a virtual attribute for assigning users to a policy. Is that required also?
dn: cn=TestPWpolicy1,o=xxxxxxx,o=isp
cn: TestPWpolicy1

Hello,
A user entry references a custom password policy through the value of the operational attribute pwdPolicySubentry. When referenced by a user entry, a custom password policy overrides the default password policy for the instance.
It is unclear to me whether you want to assign the new password policy to an individual account or to every user in ou=people,o=xxxx,o=isp.
To assign a password policy to an individual account, just ddd the password policy DN to the values of the pwdPolicySubentry attribute of the user entry e.g.
$ cat pwp.ldif
dn: uid=dmiller,ou=people,o=xxxxxxx,o=isp
changetype: modify
add: pwdPolicySubentry
pwdPolicySubentry: cn=TestPWpolicy1,o=xxxxxxx,o=isp
$ ldapmodify -D cn=directory\ manager -w - -f pwp.ldif
Enter bind password:
modifying entry uid=dmiller,ou=people,o=xxxxxxx,o=isp
$ ldapsearch -D cn=directory\ manager -w - -b dc=xxxxxxx,o=isp \
"(uid=dmiller)" pwdPolicySubentry
Enter bind password:
version: 1
dn: uid=dmiller, ou=People, o=xxxxxxx,o=isp
pwdPolicySubentry: cn=TestPWpolicy1,o=xxxxxxx,o=isp
$
See Directory Server Password Policy - 11g Release 1 (11.1.1.7.0)
You can also assign a password policy to a set of users using cos/roles virtual attributes as described in section 8.3.4 at Directory Server Password Policy - 11g Release 1 (11.1.1.7.0)

Best way to force password policy on users within 1-2 weeks?

We have a Server 2008 R2 domain.
I'd read that the password policy in GPO is only available for Computer Configuration, not User Configuration? Is that correct?
If so, that's not very flexible and will make things trickier for us.
And regarding enforcing a password policy with a GPO on our local domain, do you know of a way to force users to change their passwords within say 1 week? (the only options I know of are on the AD User account properties check a box "User
must change password at next logon" (then you'd have to force them to log out) OR relying on AD's internal formula:
webactivedirectory.com/.../how-active-directory-calculates-account-password-expiration-dates . The problem I see with the latter is if your user hasn't changed their pw for a year you'd have to wait a year+how many days you set for max password
age?
spnewbie

To add, the password policy is applied at the domain level and only works at the domain level. It's not the fact that it's at the "Computer Level" or "User Level" or not, it's the fact that it's only set at the domain level.
Account policies (Password, Lockout and Kerb), are all under the Computer Config because it forces it to apply to all user accounts that access all machines.
If you tried to create a password policy at any other level (any OU), it won't work. The only option is to use PSOs, as Mahdi pointed out.
As for that Spiceworks thread, I would suggest to post a question about a specific product to the product vendor's support forum for accurate responses.
Here's an excerpt from MOC 6425C Configuring and Troubleshooting Windows Server 2008 Active Directory, page 10-8 (and this applies to all versions of AD):
Active Directory supports one set of password and lockout policies for a domain. These policies are configured in a GPO that is scoped to the domain. A new domain contains a GPO called the Default Domain Policy that is linked to the domain and that includes
the default policy settings for password, account lockout, and Kerberos policies. You can change the settings by editing the Default Domain Policy GPO.
The best practice is to edit the Default Domain Policy GPO to specify the password policy settings for your organization. You should also use the Default Domain Policy GPO to specify account lockout policies and Kerberos policies. Do not use the Default
Domain Policy GPO to deploy any other custom policy settings. In other words, the Default Domain Policy GPO only defines the password, account lockout, and Kerberos policies for the domain. Additionally, do not define password, account lockout, or Kerberos
policies for the domain in any other GPO.
The password settings configured in the Default Domain Policy affect all user accounts in the domain. The settings can be overridden, however, by the password-related properties of the individual user accounts. On the Account tab of a user's Properties dialog
box, you can specify settings such as Password Never Expires or Store Passwords Using Reversible Encryption. For example, if five users have an application that requires direct access to their passwords, you can configure the accounts for those users to store
their passwords by using reversible encryption.

OpenLDAP, password policy.

Hi
I need some help or advice about how to use password policy with ldap authentication. I folowed that manual. I had slapd.conf configurated and I have ou=policies and the cn=default,ou=policies,dc=example,dc=com policy.
Now what shoud I do to let the cliets use that policy? I still have pam_cracklib.so in my /etc/pam.d/system-auth-ac (the clients are CentOS). Should I remove the pam_cracklib.so and add something else?
I red in another place that I should add "pwdPolicySubentry: cn=default,ou=policies,dc=example,dc=com" in the user`s entry, but I am unable to do that. Do you know in which objectClass is that attribute included?
Regards.

I believe that most of pam_ldap modules on these machines understand the Sun DS password policy controls.

Implement password policy

we are implementing the complex password policy, which is reqired by Audit team. I am able to implement password policy with AppsPasswordValidationCUS.java
But main problem, if put the long message to provide the instructions for new password on login screen it error out pl/sql number overflow issue.
How can we change the message on the following screen:
1. Main login screen (Just Hint the password) --> it works after change in messages
2. When user password expire then we want to display the on change password forms ( that new password is ...), If I send the message in custom java it gives the error of pl/sql fnd_sec...string overflow.
3. How to add the message on "user define" form.
Looking for your help or white paper to successfully change the message.

Linux and Solaris Clients with password policy using LDAP

Anybody managed to get Linux (RHEL) and Solaris 9 Client authenticate against Sun Directory Server 5.2p4 using the same password policy?
For me it looks like Linux needs attribute shadowlastchanged set to display proper Warnings, that the password will expire/needs to be changed now. On the other hand Solaris (using pam_ldap) never writes this attribute, because it's using the password policy attribute pwdchangedtime.
Hints very wellcome!
Can anybody confirm Solaris9 pam_unix still sets this shadow* attributes correct on any password change executed by a user?

Hi Jeremy,
here the answers to your questions:
>My question is which system takes precedence over the password policy?
Unfortunately there is no policy verification between the portal and your Sun One LDAP. So if you reset the password from the portal then only the portal password policies can be checked.
> If I wanted to do password resets from the Portal, does the portal then store only the password in its database?
No, the password will be stored in the LDAP, but only if it also corresponds with the LDAP policies. If not, then you will get an error, but you will not see the real LDAP exception.
> Also what would then happen if you tried to reset the password from the LDAP?
The password in the LDAP does not have to fit to the Portal password policies. When you log in, the portal will only check if the password you tipped in is the new one in LDAP and will not check any policies.
Hope this brings some light in,
Robert

How do you apply the same password policy to every PDF document you create with inDesign?

All,
Adobe peeps!,
I don't know if this is really supported with inDesign 5.5, but here is my my use case:
I constantly create more than 10 PDFs a day using inDesign
On all PDF's I create, i want to apply password security to protect them
But in order to do so, within inDesign, I am always forced to go to the "security dialogue" pane to set up the same permission and passwords over and over again
This gets tiring :/
So what I am hoping to do is the following:
Like acrobat, I want to create a password policy within inDesign
I want all PDFs created to have such a password policy be automatically applied
I know acrobat supports something like this (http://help.adobe.com/en_US/acrobat/pro/using/WS58a04a822e3e50102bd615109794195ff-7d68.w.h tml), but, unless I may have missed something, the Acrobat feature is limited. That is, the help link does not tell me how to automatically do this with Acrobat either (the link does not explain to me how to "automatically apply the same password security policy to every PDF document I save within the application). I think the only way to do so is via "Adobe LiveCycle Rights Management ES", but for non server users, I am hoping there is another way.
So my questions are:
Is it possible to create password security policies in inDesign?
Is it possible to apply the same password security policy to every PDF i create in inDesign?
If not, can I change default settings within Acrobat ProX to automatically apply a password security policy everytime I save a PDF?
If all fails, do you guys know of any extensions that can support this?
Any help would be great. Thanks!

Steve,
Thanks for your notes. To follow up on your response.
Bummer. I kinda had a hunch at this inDesign limitation.
I have been aware of the method for setting up of a security policy within Acrobat. While this feature does cut down some of the work involved in creating and applying password policies to pdfs, what I am looking for with Acrobat is to apply the same password policy to every document I save from the app. Automatically. Without having to manualy select a policy.
I think my solution will have to lie in me creating some sort of script to help support this need. I don't think Acrobat Pro X has the capabilities to allow me to tinker with, say, creating a save PDF preset that will allow me to automatically apply a password policy.
PS. I am using acrobat pro x.

Password policy not used by WebGate after upgrade (6.1 - 10g)

Hello,
Recently, we upgrade our environment from Oblix Netpoint 6.1 to Oracle Access Manager 10g (10.1.4.0.1)
Together with this update we also upgraded the WebGates that are running on the machines that have OAM 10g installed. We did not perform an upgrade on the WebGates that are running on other web servers. These are still running with the old version.
The problem we have now is that it seems that our upgraded WebGates don't respect our Password policy. The earlier versions of our WebGate still respect our policy.
Machine A has OAM 10g installed with an upgraded WebGate (WebGate A). This machine also runs an IIS web server (web server A) which is connected to the WebGate on that machine. The WebGate is configured with OAM 10g on that same machine.
On web server A, there is a protected website.
Our password policy is defined as follow:
-number of login tries allowed: 5
-lockout duration: 20000000 hours
-login tries reset: 200 days
I now try to access my protected website on web server A with User1. Every time I enter a wrong password.
When I verify this in our Active Directory, I can see that the value of oblogintrycount for User1 increments until 5. When oblogintrycount equals 5, the attribute oblockouttime is added to the profile of User1.
My user is now supposed to be locked but when I try to login one more time, the value of oblogintrycount is 1 again and the attribute oblockouttime is gone. My user is unlocked again.
I repeat the same test on web server B that is installed on a different machine. This machine has an earlier version of WebGate installed. This WebGate B is configured with the same OAM 10g as WebGate A.
I can see in the Active Directory that the value of oblogintrycount for User1 is incremented until it equals 5. At this point, the oblockouttime attribute is added to the profile of User1.
I see now in my browser a message that my user is locked. When I try to login one more time, my user stays locked.
Has anyone an idea how this problem can be solved or how this can happen?
Kind regards,
Lennaart

This is just a trial and error suggestion may not actually solve the problem.
Can you check configuration changes that one has to make with upgraded web gates. That configuration may not be correct and hence you might be getting this problem.

OAM : Which identity server is used by Password Policy?

Hi,
The OAM setup has two identity servers (ois1, ois2), two webpass (wp1, wp2) on two web servers. wp1 is pointing to ois1 only and wp2 is pointing to ois2.
We have two sets of Policy manager, Access server and WebGate. wg1 is pointing to aaa1 and wg2 is pointing to aaa2.
Now, when a user tries to access a OAM webgate protected page and the password policy gets applied, do the identity server comes into picture? if yes, which identity server is used here, ois1 or ois2?
I want to use ois1 for all the requests coming to webserver with wg1. How do I do it?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Colin,
Thanks for your reply.
The reason I put this question was - in a scenario when I dont have Access Server (any access component), then also Password Polices work. So, I understand identity server is used here. When we have access side components, what makes OAM not to use identity server at all. Or is it the feature of OAM - when the accessed resource is ptotected by WebGate the Password policies are taken care of by Access Server, otherwise by identity server or is it because of the 'obReadPasswdMode' and 'obWritePasswdMode' in the authentication scheme?
I stopped my identity server and I saw the password policy working - so I know the behavior; still asking the above question for my better understanding of OAM.
Thanks for your help!
