Description Namita Soman 2012-01-18 16:52:54 UTC

Description of problem:
When adding a permission, only one target can be used. When prompting, all get prompted, even though one of them is already entered. 

For example, below, type is entered to be user, then there should be no further prompts for filter, subtree and targetgroup.

# ipa permission-add
Permission name: ManageUser3
Permissions: read
[Attributes]: carlicense
[Type]: user
[Member of group]: 
[Filter]: 
[Subtree]: cn=users,cn=accounts,dc=testrelm
[Target group]: 
ipa: ERROR: invalid 'target': type, filter, subtree and targetgroup are mutually exclusive


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
freeipa-server-2.1.4-4.fc16.x86_64

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. run ipa permission-add as indicated above

  
Actual results:
After entering type to be user, there are still prompts for filter, subtree and targetgroup. If any values are entered for those, an error is thrown.

Expected results:
After type is entered to be user, then there should be no further prompts for filter, subtree and targetgroup.
