Description Namita Soman 2011-09-26 13:29:03 UTC
Description of problem:
In HBAC Rules, when a category is set to 'all', the entries in that category are not deleted.
Similar behaviour in Sudo Rules.

In HBAC, behaviour seen:
I have a user added in 'Who' Section. 
Then change radiobutton to 'Anyone'.
When I click on 'Update', the listed users are not deleted. In ipa-server-2.1.1-4.el6.x86_64 - I get the error below, which indicates, I'd have to delete it first before changing the setting
Operations Error - user category cannot be set to 'all' while there are allowed users

In Sudo, behaviour is different:
I have a user added in 'Who' Section. 
Then change radiobutton to 'Anyone'.
When I click on 'Update', the listed users are not deleted. And no error is thrown.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.1.1-4.el6.x86_64

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add an HBAC Rule
2. Add a user in 'Who' Section. 
3. Then change radiobutton to 'Anyone'.
4. click on 'Update'

5.Repeat same steps as above with Sudo Rules  


Actual results:
For HBAC Rules, error thrown:
Operations Error - user category cannot be set to 'all' while there are allowed users
For Sudo Rules, no error thrown

Expected results:
users in that category should be deleted - for both HBAC and Sudo rules

Additional info:
Discussed this with Endi, and his response:
The UI has a code that removes the users when you set the category to
'all'. Sometime ago there was a regression that caused that code to be
skipped, but it exposed a problem on the server side:
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1440
Recently the regression has been fixed, so in the UI you should not see
this problem anymore, but it still exists if you use CLI. The UI should
now work like described in #43.

//where #43 is his feedback review to my tests, and it said - 
>> 43. In HBACTests we could verify that when a category is set to 'all'
>> the entries in that category are deleted.

Comment 6 Namita Soman 2011-10-11 14:18:55 UTC
Verified using ipa-server-2.1.2-2.el6.x86_64
When switching category to 'All', existing entries are deleted
