Description Noriko Hosoi 2014-09-23 01:03:21 UTC
This bug is created as a clone of upstream ticket:
https://fedorahosted.org/389/ticket/47900

root DN, aka "cn=directory manager", should not be restricted by password policy.  During ADD operations the root DN is incorrectly restricted by password policy.  Updating an existing entry, doing a MOD, works as expected.
