Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Comment 1 Jenny Severance 2011-04-01 18:49:18 UTC 
looks like it is when it starts with a 0
Comment 5 Rob Crittenden 2011-04-06 02:31:20 UTC 
master: 316efbc32f7b586df36653aa894e686313a64764

ipa-2-0: c4fb150837d9e141eb95e5d4d97934271703551b

To Test:

Scenario 1: Testing on the master itself

- ipa-server-install <your favorite options>
- kinit admin
- ipa user-add --first=Tim --last=User --postalcode=01234-1111 tuser

Verify in output that ZIP is correct.

Scenario 2: Test with a previous version of ipa-client

Using the IPA server from Scenario 1, on another machine:

- yum install ipa-client
- ipa-client-install
Enter the server from Scenario 1
Enroll using admin credentials
- kinit admin
- ipa user-add --first=Tim --last=User --postalcode=01234-1111 tuser

Expected error:

ipa: ERROR: invalid 'postalcode': must be an integer

- ipa user-add --first=Tim --last=User --postalcode=01234 tuser

Expected output:

ZIP = 668

The expectation here is not that the zip will be correct, it won't with older bits and a leading 0. We just want to confirm that it won't blow up.
