Martin Babinsky 2016-11-09 08:52:22 UTC Doc Text Cause:

A regression in principal name normalization caused `ipa passwd` command to stop automatically lowercasing usernames.

Consequence:

Winsync users wishing to change their passwords using mixed-case usernames were unable to use `ipa passwd` since their principals stored in lowercased form were not matched by the command.

Fix:

The user principal normalizer was fixed to automatically lowercase incoming user names.

Result:

ipa passwd correctly handles mixed-case users coming from Winsync agreements.

Previously, due to a bug in the principal name normalization, the "ipa passwd" command failed to convert user names to lower case. As a consequence, users synchronized from Active Directory (AD) with a mixed case user name were unable to change their passwords. The user principal name normalization has been fixed and as a result, the "ipa passwd" command now works correctly.
