Password Policy Syntax

I need to set up a password policy where both uppercase and lowercase letters must coexist in the selected password.
I haven't seen this option in the password parameter fields in OID.
Is it possible to specify a additional or different password syntax rule?
Oriol

Which version of OID are you using. e.g. with 10.1.4. you can specify/configure this in OID.

LDAP Password Policy - Syntax

Hi,
I am trying to find out if there is a way to define password syntax rules from within the LDAP server (I am using IPlanet version 5.1 Service Pack 2).
The password syntax used at my company specifies that all passwords must contain at least one lowercase letter, one uppercase letter, and one number. Also, passwords may not contain any part of the username or any part of the user's full name.
Is there a way to get the LDAP server to perform these checks? And if so, how?
Thanks!

DS does not support this at the server level. You may have to build a pre-op plugin

How to create a password policy for password syntax?

Hi,
I need to apply a password policy in OID that checks the password syntax. We need to verify that the each password contains at least three of the four character groups (Capital Letters / Small Letters / Numbers / Special Characters). In OID, I may only check for minimum Length and a min Number of Numbers. Is there an easy way to do this? (Plugin in OID?)
For the Web-Part (eg. Portal) its quite easy, as we may create a Javascript to check the syntax on the "change password" page, but as we have diffrent types of access, we want to get the rule applied in one place.
Thanks for help

Hi,
In addition to Martin’s suggestions, we can also choose to change the scope of the existing GPO with Security Filtering.
Regarding Security Filtering, the following article can be referred to for more information.

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: nsFilteredRoleDefinition

Portal password policy -- remove required numerics?

We are running OracleAS 10g (10.1.2) -- how can I change the password policy for Portal users? By default, the passwords require a numeric character, but we would like to remove that requirement...

The password policy for Portal users (or better : Single Signon Users) is stored in OiD. It can be changed through the Oracle Directory Administration Utility :
1. Start the console and login as admin user (cn=orcladmin)
2. Navigate to Password Policy Management entry
3. Click on the Password Policy for Realm <your realm>
4. Choose the Password Syntax tab
5. Change the value for 'Number of Numeric Characters in Password' to the value of your choice.

Questions on Password Policy

Hi All,
I have couple of questions on password policy behavior upon OAM-EBS integration.
Currently "Applications SSO Auto Link User" options is set to "Disable" in my env.
Please confirm if following is the right understanding.
1.     Upon OAM-EBS integration, user whose EBS account is linked with OID cannot change their password from EBS console. EBS password policy (Password expiry etc) will be overridden by OID policy.
2.     EBS user`s whose account is not linked with OID can change the password and EBS password policy will be applicable for that user.
3.     To have the user use EBS password policy he must be unlinked by setting up USER_GUID attribute to null in FND_USER table.
Thanks in advance.
-Sam

Sam,

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.

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.

How to ignore the password policy in a custom workflow?

Hi,
We have a custom workflow which is called via SPML to provide 'Administrator Change Password' functionality in a portal.
Our password policy sets the String Quality rules and Number of Previous Passwords that Cannot be Reused. But we like to bypass the password policy when the password administrators (who have a admin role with a capability - 'Change Password Administrator'). At least, restriction ' Number of Previous Passwords that Cannot be Reused' need to be ignored (But password need to be added to the history... cannot disable adding passwords to history).
Please advice me how it could be achieved?
The workflow steps:
1. Checkout 'ChangeUserPassword' view for the user as an administrator
2. Set the new password in the view, set true to view.savePasswordHistory
3. Set password on the resources
4.Checkin the view
Thanks
Siva

Thanks eTech.
My main goal is to skip the password history check (new password can't be a last used 10 passwords) when admin change password workflow is launched. As you suggested , I created a special password policy exactly as our regular password policy excluding "Number of Previous Passwords that Cannot be Reused" setting.
Then before change the password of a user as admin, special policy is attached , password changed, and user's password policy is reverted back to regular one. The issue is, as the special policy does not enforce the password history check, the whole password history of the user is wiped out from the user object when the password is changed by admin change password workflow. We don't want this to happen.
Please guide me whether is anyway to achieve just ignoring the password history without any other impact on user.
Is adding passwords to user object's password history list is triggered by "Number of Previous Passwords that Cannot be Reused" setting of the password policy??
Thanks
Siva

Problems Implementation Password Policy on OIM 9.1.0

Hello,,,
Please help me,
i was create password policy on OIM, i inject that pass policy to one of resource object, i create object form and process form with same configuration ( field table ), i use data flow to transmit the data between object form and process form..
i set process definition with check AUTO SAVE FORM, and AUTO PRE-POPULATE,
the Problems is :
1. When i try to do provisioning process ( with delegated admin : xelsysadm ) to that resource object (target system) , after admin submit , status process is provisioning, and the detail is System Validation : Pending
2. Then i try to remove password policy on resource object, and i try again to do the provisioning, and the process working fine, status process provisioned, detail process
system validation : completed, Create user : completed
why it'is happen ?
that the important point is, why AUTO SAVE FORM cannot working fine if i inject Password Policy on resource Object...
Warm regards,
Ricky R
Manila

When you say you have checked auto prepop means that there are pre pops attached to certain fields on your process form that you want to be auto triggered before provisioning commences. So i'm assuming that you are pre-populating password field. Is the password value that you are prepopping the field with conform to the standards of the password policy? If not that could be the reason why your provisioning process isnt getting kicked off. you will need to supply a password (either manually or if you want to automate it (pre pop it)) that coforms to the password policy defined on the resource object. Also i think the name of the password field must be _PASSWORD.

Set Password Policy For System Administrator Account in UCCE Servers

Hi All,
We want to setup a password policy ( expires in 30 days) for the local administrator account in all our UCCE servers.
We found that the all the UCCE services are running in local system account except logger and distributor( these services are running in domain user account).
Is it a supported configuration ? Are there any impacts with this setting ?
Thanks a lot in advance!
Thanks and Regards,
Thammaya

Hi,
what is the UCCE (~ ICM) version? Is there OS hardening applied?
By the way, yes, if you mean the local "administrator" account, you can do whatever you want to do with it, provided you don't lock yourself out - this should not happen, naturally, having all ICM servers in the domain and you can always use the domain admin (or a user belonging to the domain admins group).
By the way, I don't really see the meaning of having a local administrator account being enabled. :-)

How to force password policy requirements on password resets for user accounts reset by the Administrator?

OS: Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise
Domain Level: 2008
Forest Level: 2000
We have Domain Administrators in our domain that reset passwords for user accounts, and the passwords the Administrators set them to are not being enforced follow our default domain password policy. For example, I log on the domain controller, as an administrator
and can reset a password for a user account to be blank.
Is there a reason Domain Administrator password resets for user accounts are not enforced by our default domain password policy? Is there a way to enforce this on password resets by Domain Admins?

Do you have fine grant password policy? If not ; by default all the usrs are effected by domain level password policy even domain admins,
