Grace login in password policy

Hi,
Anyone knows if grace logins will be implemented in the next version of directory server?
Rgds,

Yes, grace logins are implemented in Directory Server 6 (which has a new password policy based on IETF internet-draft).
Regards,
Ludovic

New users with Global Password Policy requiring password "reset on first user login" are still prompted to reset password after entering incorrect password

The setup:
We have the option "Password must: be reset on first user login" enabled in the Global Password Policy on our 10.9 / Mavericks server. We import new user accounts into Open Directory via a delimited text file and include a default password for each user.
What I've observed and tested:
When a user attempts to log into a computer that's bound to our Open Directory for the first time, they can enter anything in the password field and still receive the prompt to reset their password. They are never notified that they entered their default password incorrectly. The password reset will then fail (as it should), but they still aren't notified that this is the reason for the password reset failure. To put it another way: Seeing the prompt to reset your password would reasonably imply that you entered the default password correctly, but that's not the case at all.
The question:
Is this expected behavior? If it is, it doesn't seem logical. If this was the case in OS X Server 10.3 through 10.7 I never noticed it. Can anyone corroborate this with their own setup? Thanks in advance.
-- Steve

Some follow up questions:
- How did you migrate (dsmig ldif or binary import)
- Did the accounts in .x have any custom password policies set?
For a "new" and a migrated entry, can you check if a passwordpolicysubentry is configured?
(search as directory manager and fetch the attribute)

Sun DS 6.3 Reject same login as password in a password policy

Hi,
It is possible to create a password policy to avoid setting the same user login as the password ? I have been looking at the [administration documentation|http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/820-2763/fhkrj?a=view] for password policies but it seems this isn't possible.
It can be done somehow ?
Thanks.

if you set :
pwd-strong-check-enabled : on
pwd-strong-check-require-charset: any-three
it will require numbers & uppers etc... so therefore password=username wont be allowed anyway.

Password policy "change password at first login" errors!

Complete panic!
I've updated to OS X Server 4.1 and all my users appear to be ok. All green lights within the server app. Computers are NOT giving the red light 'network accounts unavailable'. However, no one can login. Every user, new and old, are being prompted at login to create a new password (say: Password 1). They type in a new password (say: Password2), the box shakes like it didn't accept it. However, if they try to login again, it won't accept Password1. If they type Password2, they again get prompted to change the password.
So it looks like it's accepting the password, but stuck in this reset password loop.
I've checked in the server app and workgroup manager. Neither have 'reset password at first login' selected.

Many Open Directory problems can be resolved by taking the following steps. Test after each one, and back up all data before making any changes.
1. The OD master must have a static IP address on the local network, not a dynamic address. It must not be connected to the same network with more than one interface; e.g., Ethernet and Wi-Fi.
2. You must have a working DNS service, and the server's hostname must match its fully-qualified domain name. To confirm, select the server by name in the sidebar of the Server application window, then select the Overview tab. Click the Edit button on the Host Name line. On the Accessing your Server sheet, Domain Name should be selected. Change the Host Name, if necessary. The server must have at least a three-level name (e.g. "server.yourdomain.com"), and the name must not be in the ".local" top-level domain, which is reserved for Bonjour.
3. The primary DNS server used by the server must be itself, unless you're using another server for internal DNS. The only DNS server set on the clients should be the internal one, which they should get from DHCP if applicable.
4. If you have accounts with network home directories, make sure the URL's are correct in the user settings. A return status of 45 from the authorizationhost daemon in the log may mean that the URL for mounting the home directory was not updated after a change in the hostname. If the server and clients are all running OS X 10.10 or later, directories should be shared with SMB rather than AFP.
5. Follow these instructions to rebuild the Kerberos configuration on the server.
6. If you use authenticated binding, check the validity of the master's certificate. The common name must match the hostname and domain name. Deselecting and then reselecting the certificate in Server.app has been reported to have an effect in some cases. Otherwise delete all certificates and create new ones.
7. Unbind and then rebind the clients in the Users & Groups preference pane. Use the fully-qualified domain name of the master.
8. Reboot the master and the clients.
9. Don't log in to the server with a network user's account.
10. Disable any internal firewalls in use, including third-party "security" software.
11. If you've created any replica servers, delete them.
12. If OD has only recently stopped working when it was working before, you may be able to restore it from the automatic backup in /var/db/backups, or from a Time Machine snapshot of that backup.
13. Reset the password policy database:
sudo pwpolicy -clearaccountpolicies
14. As a last resort, export all OD users. In the Open Directory pane of Server, delete the OD server. Then recreate it and import the users. Ensure that the UID's are in the 1001+ range.
If you get this far without solving the problem, then you'll need to examine the logs in the Open Directory section of the log list in the Server app, and also the system log on the clients.

Password policy "be changed at next login" stopped working

Due to a system failure of a 10.8.5 Open Directory master, I migrated it to a new 10.10.1. Migration seemed flawless, but now I'm experiencing a weird failure of the password policy "be changed at next login". It's simply ignored.
10.8.5 description:
- virtual machine with VMWare ESxi 5.5u1, 8 GB RAM, 60 GB hard drive plus a second one 150 GB
- Server version 2.2.2, Workgroup Manager version 10.8 (409)
- Open Directory with a self generated certificate for SSO
- all the users have mobile account with local home template
10.10.1 description:
- virtual machine with VMWare ESxi 5.5u1, 8 GB RAM, 80 GB hard drive plus a second one 120 GB
- Server version 4.0.3 (14S350), Workgroup Manager 10.9 (421)
Migration procedure: installed ex-novo 10.10.1, at the end of installation migrated data through migration assistant from old server hard drive attached at the new VM, switched off VM, detached old server hardware, rebooted, downloaded and installed new Server version.
All the computers bound to the Open Directory master allowed login so I thought the migration went properly, untile I discovered that the policy to change the password at next login doesn't work anymore.
Anyone having hints/suggestions about this behaviour?
Thanks
Luca

Thank you for the suggestion. I cleared the policy database with the command you sent, but in workgroup manager I still find "be changed at next login" checked. If I check the password policy of my test user 98765 this is what I find:
server:~ root# pwpolicy -u 98765 -getpolicy
Getting policy for 98765
hardExpirationDate=1970-01-01 00:00:00 +0000 requiresAlpha=0 maxMinutesOfNonUse=0 usingHistory=0 maxFailedLoginAttempts=0 newPasswordRequired=1 expirationDate=1970-01-01 00:00:00 +0000 usingHardExpirationDate=0 maxChars=0 usingExpirationDate=0 maxMinutesUntilChangePassword=0 minChars=0 canModifyPasswordforSelf=1 requiresNumeric=0
newPasswordRequired is correctly set at 1, but there is no prompt to change password when I try to login. I don't if it's correct, but if I check the password policy after I logged on a computer, I find nothing:
staff:~ root# pwpolicy -u 98765 -getpolicy
Getting policy for 98765
staff:~ root#
Is this correct? Is the policy transferred to the login computer and in this case the transfer fails for some reason?
Thanks for the help

Mac OS X 10.5 Clients - Active Directory Login - Password Policy

Hi,
I wonder if anyone can help me or give me some pointers.
I have a client who has a number of Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard clients who sign-in and authenticate with a Window's Active Directory server which has a password policy to prompt users to change their login password every 30 days.
Today is the day they are required to change their login password and they do get message that says something like "0 days to change your password" but are not getting the subsequent dialogue box that allows them to change their password.
Any ideas?

OOPs, missed which one we were talking about, sorry.
Does it boot to Single User Mode, CMD+s keys at bootup, if so try...
/sbin/fsck -fy
Repeat until it shows no errors fixed.
(Space between fsck AND -fy important).
Resolve startup issues and perform disk maintenance with Disk Utility and fsck...

"other password policy" preventing login

In trying to set up a network account, once I've entered the password and hit OK, I get the error msg: Unable to enable login due to other password policy. This leaves the account in the "Disabled" status. I've been all through all the places where I can think would relate to password policy and can't find any issue. Local accounts are set up and working fine. Any experience with this "other password policy" would be appreciated. It just can't be that hard!
Thanks a bunch.

I'm having the same problem. One of my users is disabled, and ik can't re-enable him due to the error:
Unable to enable login due to other password policy settings.
And I'm 100% sure the password adhere's to the password policy.

WebAccess, ldap authentication, grace logins

GroupWise 2014 SP1. User only logs in to GroupWise via WebAccess.
GroupWise is using LDAP authentication and eDirectory has a password
policy in place. The user's password expired. I reset the password
in eDirectory. But every time she logs into WebAccess, she still gets
a notice that she has limited grace logins and she still gets prompted
to change her password. Any suggestions? Or open an SR?

GW-WebAccess and Password Policy

I am wanting to have a password expiration policy that will force new users to change passwords when they first login. I integrate with eDir and am wondering how GroupWise handles password expiration events. Will the end user be prompted to change the password with a redirect to the password change page?
I work for a school system and have some employee's that never log into a workstation in-district but only interacts with my system via GroupWise Client or Webaccess.
Thanks

Hi Richard,
Further to my comments above, your LDAP authentication must be set to BIND and not COMPARE in order for password policies to apply.
Below is an excerpt from the documentation:
84.3.1 Access Method
On a server-by-server basis (ConsoleOne > Tools > GroupWise System Operations > LDAP Servers), you can specify whether you want each LDAP server to respond to authentication requests using a bind or a compare.
Bind: With a bind, the POA essentially logs in to the LDAP server. When responding to a bind request, most LDAP servers enforce password policies such as grace logins and intruder lockout, if such policies have been implemented by the LDAP directory.
Compare: With a compare, the POA provides the user password to the LDAP server. When responding to a compare request, the LDAP server compares the password provided by the POA with the users password in the LDAP directory, and returns the results of the comparison. Using a compare connection can provide faster access because there is typically less overhead involved because password policies are not being enforced.
Hope that this information is useful to you.
Cheers,

Issue with Lockout Duration in Password Policy in OAM

Hi,
We are facing an issue with the lockout duration configuration in the password policies in the identity manager interface for our OAM setup.
Oracle Access Manager 10g version 10.1.4
User/Policy Store: ADAM Ldap [Microsoft ADAM 2003]
After we lock out a user in our LDAP after 5 wrong attempts, the two attribute values in ADAM get updated to 5:
oblogintrycount
badPwdCount
Also I see that "oblockouttime" gets updated with an unix timestamp.
Now, we have set the "Lockout Duration" in the password policy as 1 hour. So, after 1 hour, the user should be unlocked in ADAM.
However, after 1 hour when the user tries to login, he/she gets the error that a wrong password has been entered for the userID.
When we check in ADAM, we see that the value of "oblogintrycount" was indeed reset. However the value of "badPwdCount" did not get reset and is still stuck at 5.
If we reset both these attribute values to 0, the user can login again.
Now, is OAM expected to reset both these attribute values to 0, or does it only reset the oblix attributes?
If it is the latter, is there a way around to resolve this issue? Or are we doing something wrong here?
Please let us know your feedback.
Thanks!
Abhishek.

OAM only works with the ob* attributes, and not with badPwdCount attribute of the AD (ADAM). I think for some reason the password and account policies of the AD is being triggerred. Disable the AD password policy and it will be Ok.
Hope this helps. Let us know.

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.

I'm trying to edit the global password policy (under users) to "be reset at first user login" but that option and several others are grayed out.

I guess you have uninstalled an older version of PS lately?

Sun Directory Server Password Policy Problems

Hi,
I am using Sun Directory Server and Sun AM (2005Q1).
We are using SUN DS to configure the password policy to expire user passwords after 30 days.
Also, the warning has been set to "one day before expiry". However, when the warning IS displayed to the user and the user changes his/her password on display of the warning, even though the user's password expiration timestamp attribute contains a new timestamp (which is 30 days hence the date of change), on next login user is AGAIN thrown the warning that his/her password will expire in "HH hours: MM mins".
I do not understand what needs to be done to fix this. Any help would be appreciated.

How is the user authenticated ? Through Access Manager or directly to the Directory Server ?
Access Manager can be configured to handle Password expiration, and so can Directory Server. I would advise you to check which system is actually throwing the warning.
Regards,
Ludovic

Password policy not allowing to reconfigure STMS

Hi Guru's,
I have done system copy by database restore method, in post activities I have mistakenly deleted STMS configuration on domain controller, now when I am trying to add production server in landscape.
the password policy is not allowing us to reconfigure STMS.
I have manually reset the TMSADM password with alphanumeric format on all three system in client 000 with user DDIC,but I was getting same error message,
After removing password policy on PRD server it allowed me to configure STMS for PRD server.
Is there other way to reconfigure STMS without removing policy?
policy parameter:
login/min_password_specials ==>1
login/min_password_digits ==>1
since i dont want to remove password policy to reconfigure STMS,
please suggest, alternative.
