Fixed In Version: ipa-2.1.0-1.el6
Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Cause: When adding a new password policy the web UI did not prompt for a required field, priority. Consequence: Adding a new policy via the UI returned an error message that a required field was missing. Fix: Make the priority a required field. Result: Adding a password policy in the Web UI correctly requires the priority so new policies may be added.

Description Rob Crittenden 2011-03-18 20:30:34 UTC 
Description of problem:

When adding a new password policy via UI, the dialog box only asks for the policy name, it doesn't ask for the priority. The priority is actually required, so the operation will fail with this message: 'cospriority' is required.

The adding new password policy via CLI works fine as long as the priority is specified.
