Applying different password policies to different groups (contexts)

How do you assign different password policies to different groups (or contexts) in the OID?

According to chapter 18 in the Oracle Internet Directory Administrator's Guide Release 9.0.2 Part Number A95192-01, it doesn't look like you can apply password policies on the group level. At any rate, they only seem to talk about password policies being assigned at the subscriber level.

  • Help needed - setting password policies for different types of accounts

    Hello,
    We have a situation where we have different types of users created on a solaris server. We have regular users, admins, functional accounts and device accounts. Of course solaris does not differentiate between regular user and other types, i think. The default password policy applies to all the users on the server. I want to configure different policy for different types of user accounts. Is it possible? The difference between the accounts on our side is
    Regular user accounts - 8 digit numbers ( 00667265) - expire password every 90 days
    Functional accounts - 8 digits starting with F ( F0253466) - do not expire, but password length must be 10-12 and complex
    Device Accounts - 8 digits starting with Z ( Z2367249) - do not expire, but password length must be 12 and complex - like upper case, lower case, number, special chars etc.
    Is it possible to set up different password policies, is so how?

    The password expiration policy is pretty easy, it can be set on a per account basis when the account is created. I'm not aware of a simple way to define a complexity policy for groups of accounts but the policy is enforced using pam, so you should be able to write a pam module which would enforce your complexity policy. The pam manual page would be a reasonable starting point for learning about pam.

  • Different Password Policy for Different User Groups in ACS 4.2

    Hi All,
    Can some one provide a solution for the below requirement?
    We do have ACS 4.2 appliance managing firewalls of different clients. The users are common i.e, helpdesk administrators. One of the client came up with setting different password policy for managing their devices i.e, the client wants to have min 15 characters as password length. We do have currently 8 characters as min password length. Can we change the password policy to min 15 characters only for managing the firewalls of this client whereas for all other client firewalls we feel better to have 8 characters as min password length?
    It seems that these password policies are global & affects all the users.
    This is something like, having two sets of password (for each user) policy depending on the client which he is going to manage.
    For my knowledge, i think that this is not possible. But, thought to cross-check with experts!
    -Jags.

    Hi jags,
    Yor're correct. Password policy on ACS will affect all internal user. We can't create different password policies for diferent clients/connections/set_of_users
    Password validation options apply only to user passwords that are stored in the ACS internal database. They do not apply to passwords in user records in external user databases; nor do they apply to enable or admin passwords for Cisco IOS network devices.

  • Why do I have to enter 2 different passwords  to 2 different apple IDs when I have to update an app

    Whenever I click on the update button I have to enter my current Apple ID password then it starts updating. But then it asks for the password to  my old Apple ID. So I enter that password then it just stops updating and I have to do the same thing over again. It. Just goes in a big loop and I can't update any of my apps. It's driving me crazy. Please help.

    Because some of the applications you're updating are associated with the old Apple ID. This can't be changed without deleting them and then downloading them from the new one, which may require repurchasing paid applications.

  • Implementing password policie using Role and CoS

    Hy all,
    I have created a directory with the following partial structure (Sun directory 5.2 patch 2):
    ou=people,o=accounts,c=an
    |----- cn=user1
    |----- cn=user2

    Hmm,
    Pretty cool.
    I just finished doing it the hard-way when I saw your post :(.
    I tried it anyways, and it did all the work that I had done by hand in the previous try. Which was ...
    1) Creating the filtered role (same in both approaches).
    2) Creating a Container for COS Templates.
    3) Creating a COS Template with a dn having a cn string of the full dn to the role in 1) above. Had to use generic entry editor to add all the additional attributes as below ...
    dn: cn="cn=TempFilter,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com",
    �cn=PolTempl,dc=example,dc=com
    objectclass: top
    objectclass: extensibleObject
    objectclass: LDAPsubentry
    objectclass: costemplate
    cosPriority: 1
    passwordPolicySubentry: cn=TempPolicy,dc=example,dc=com
    (started with a new costemplate and the added all the above attributes, also involved things like changing the naming attribute - the dn - from cosPriority to the one cn as shown above)
    4) Creatiing a COS with ...
    4.1) passwordpolicysubenty as a generated attribute that is overriding and operation (this is picked from the matched CoS template)
    4.2) Use the template container's dn from 2) above for the TemplateDN value.
    4.3) Use nsrole of the target enty to narrow down to the COS template as in 3) above. I.E. "template"->"attribute name" value is set to "nsRole"
    (So when a user's nsrole maps to a cn value of an entry under the TemplateDN subtree. That template applies.)

  • OIM Password Policies

    Hello All
    I have a number of users setup in OIM and am using it for provisioning. I have the users in different organizations based on class of user and permissions to the portal. I have a need to have different password policies based on the organizations of the users. I looked through and it doesn't look like you can assign a password policy to an organization. Do you know of a way to assign users in org1 password policy A and others different policies? I looking at the xellerate users resource object and thought maybe I could do a rule to look for org1 but not sure if this is possible. Any help you can give would be appreciated.
    Thanks
    Nick

    in terms of using an entity adapter, how would you go about doing that? Would it be based on user insertion or update? also, when trying to add a password policy, it asks for a rule then the policy, is there a way to develop a rule to use when assigning the password policy?

  • ACS 5.3 Different password for privilege exec mode

    This is what I would like to do for our Core Routers. Not too familiar with ACS, so please excuse me if I don't provide you will all the details.
    Right now I have ACS 5.3 which is tide to Active Directory. When a user logs in they use there AD credentials to access the CLI and use that same password to access privileged exec mode.
    What I want to do is have users log in using their AD credentials like normal but have a unique password to access privileged exec mode, different for each user.
    So far this is what I have done:
    1) Created a test user (same as AD user name) in the Internal Identity Store
    Password Type: Internal Users
    normal password set differently that Enable Password (I think Enable Password will only be relevant)
    2) Created a rule under Access Policies > Device Admin - Commands > Identity
    - Created Rule with Current Condition Set    (TACACS+:Authen-Type match ASCII And (TACACS+:Action match Login AND TACACS+Service match Enable))
    - Identity Source: Internal Users
    When I enable the rule. I can login with my AD credentials, but when I try to access privilege exec mode the password that I created for the local user (regular and enable) does not work.
    Question: Do I need to create a shell profile with Maximum privilege value set to something under 15 for the authorization policy and apply it so it will try and use the internal user's enable password?
    Not to familiar with how this works. One of my co-workers said I needed to demote the users in order for my rule to work.

    Hey Tushar,
    That is our current setup. Right now each user logs in with their AD credentials to get into user exec mode and the same password to get into privileged exec mode. I would like to have a user login with their normal AD credentials to get into user exec mode and a different password (specific to each user, not locally on the device) to login to privileged exec mode. We are doing this for security reasons. Hopefully that clarifys what I'm trying to do.
    Thanks

  • When I try to install softwear(new printer driver and "Flash Player" . The "Name" box says "apple". I'm asked for my password but it is always deemed wrong. Is this my Apple password, or a different one?

    Normally you will be asked to confirm software installation and updates, which is what that window should be for. However, the "Name" is the "User" name as shown in System Preferences > Users & Groups. Is "apple" your User name? If not, try entering what your User name is and then the password that goes with it.

  • Junked old macbook for a new one. changed apple id password from a different mac. i want to login and it asks for name and password. no matter what i type i cant seem to login. any way help?

    junked old macbook for a new one. changed apple id password from a different mac. i want to login and it asks for name and password. no matter what i type i cant seem to login. why cant i just enter my apple id and password. or is there a way to change whatever name and password are on the new one from another mac so i can login. anything helps...thanks

    Just open System Preferences>Users & Groups and unlock the preference pane with your root password.
    Set the New Account to be an Administrator and fill in the rest of the data and then click "Create User".
    I would suggest using this user to be YOU with admin capabilities. I wouldn't use the root user - too much damage could occur if you're not sure what you're doing. If you have files, etc., that you want to move to this account, simply but them in the Shared folder - or if you 'rescued' some old files and the like from your 'trashed' MBP, you can put them in your NEW admin account folders.
    Hope I've explained myself well - call back with any questions!

  • How to get Apple ID and password that is different to iTunes store account which I have already activated and completed contracts, tax information and bank information I want to create a Paid Books Account use apple ID

    I was given this address from the Apple customer support team.
    I have an active existing iTunes store account and use the same Apple ID for signing into my iTunes Connect Account that distributes Apps.
    I have created some books using the iBook author and in order to distribute content on the iBookstore I have been told electronically that I need a new Apple ID and password that is different to iTunes store account which I have already activated and completed contracts, tax information and bank information valid until 2013?
    I want to create a Paid Books Account using the same email address, tax information and bank information. This has been most frustrating, as I cannot get passed the sign in section and there is no contact person I can speak to. I was of the understanding the iTunes connect account and the Developer programs which I paid good money for is all what I needed to be paid for selling iBooks on the iBookstore???
    I only have one email address and wish to also use it for the Paid Books Account. I have books ready to be exported and published.
    I am also having trouble locating and downloading iTunes Producer. I understand I need to have the Paid Books Account active to access the iTunes Producer program. Please help.
    See additional information below:
    What device did you use to connect to the store?  Mac computer
    Which operating system is installed?  Mac OS X v10.7.x
    What version of iTunes is installed on your computer?  iTunes 10.6
    Choose the iTunes Store or App Store for your country:  Other
    Please select your country:  Australia

    Hi Lrwill,
    If the apps that are on your son's iPad were purchased under his Dad's Apple ID, then signing your Apple ID onto the iPad will not help you with updating those apps.
    Also, if the iPad was sync'd with his Dad's iTunes library, then hooking it up to your computer/iTunes library, will require you to reset the iPad, and everything that was loaded under the other Library and Apple ID will be wiped out.
    Can you provide a little more info about what was set up under which Apple ID and what iTunes library the iPad was sync'd with?
    Cheers,

  • I can't update apps because iphone 5 is asking for the password to a different itunes account

    In my settings under iTunes and App Store I am signed in with my iTunes account.
    However, when I go to update apps it asks me for the password to a different iTunes account - that of my partner who also uses my iMac.
    I've tried signing out and signing back in via Settings but it's still asking for my partner's password instead of mine.
    What should I do?

    the apps were orignially download with the old ID and are linked forever to that old ID.  You need ot delete the apps and if you want them you need to download with your currrent ID

  • Can two people share the same Apple ID on two different iPhones and maintain different passwords?  Yes, there is more to the story.

    I have an iMac, and iPhone.  I've had my Apple ID for a few years. 
    My wife got an iPhone 4S a few months back and the salesperson at Verizon set her Apple ID the same as mine, but gave her a different password.  I don't know if this was ok, but that is what happened.
    So, yesterday, we both upgraded to IOS6 and I had no problem logging in to my iPhone with my Apple ID.  When my wife went to log in, she was told that she was entering the wrong password. We entered the password over and over again and still was wrong.
    The question is... can two people share the same Apple ID on two different iPhones and maintain different passwords?  (I have the feeling her iPhone is thinking that since it's my Apple ID, it wants my password.)
    If not, can I still set up a new Apple ID for her even through she's had the iPhone for a few months?
    Thanks.

    Hi
    You shold follow your feelings, its probably right most of the time.
    You can have 5 different devices hucked upp to one Apple ID. What I have done is that my wife and I have one Apple ID, when I bye a new app on my phone, She gets it to. Thats nice.
    You can allways set upp a new Apple ID for your wife.

  • I mistakenly registered my wife's and my iPhone under the same account on the same computer, albeit with different passwords. How do I separate these phones?

    This mistake has confused the account somehow and actions done on one phone often have an effect on the other. I took these phones back to the dealer where they were purchased a few months ago, and they were able to correct some of the issues, but we still have problems. The latest is that my wife password would not work on her Apple ID account so she changed it successfully, but a few days later when I tried to update an app on my phone, and in trying to sign in to iTunes, it showed her name instead of mine, and of course, would not accept my password.
    When we first bought these phones about a year ago, I registered them both inder the name "R & P's iPhone" and tried to assign different passwords for the 2 phones, but as I recall, this was not successful. We let it go at that, inasmuch as we had not explored the phone's features much beyond making simple phone calls. But as time went on, and we began installing apps and using other features, this conflict has showed up more and more often. Now I am told by the dealer that one cannot register 2 phones on the same computer, which sounds odd to me, but whatever, we are prepared to start over & register the phones on different computers, under different names.
    I have an iTunes account, but is this where you make these changes? All I see on iTunes is related to music & movies.
    Thanks kindly for any advice.
    R & P

    I access a personal iPhone and iPad, and a business iPhone with the same Apple ID.
    The iPhone's passcode lock feature is completely separate from another iPhone or iOS device.
    All apps, all paid and free apps include DRM protection which is tied to the Apple ID that was used to download the apps. If some apps were downloaded with one Apple ID and then a new Apple ID is created, in order to download an app update that was installed with the original Apple ID requires using that Apple ID and password.
