Description Namita Soman 2011-06-27 14:27:42 EDT

Description of problem:
Activate or deactivate a user in the User - Edit page, updates if the user's account is disabled or not. 
So when i click on the Update btn after making this change - a message is thrown - no modifications to be performed
I can click on "back to list" cleanly and the user's is correctly enabled or disabled.

But it is conflicting with the normal flow - where a user makes the change to the account, clicks on Update to save the change made.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
ipa-server-2.0.99-1.20110616T2130zgitdbeae4e.el6.x86_64

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. ipa user-find will indicate a new user added has:
  Account disabled: False
2. Edit this user
2. Click on : Account disabled: Active: Click to Deactivate
3. Save this change by clicking on "update"
  
Actual results:
Error thrown:
no modifications to be performed
The account was already disabled when i clicked on "Account disabled: Active: Click to Deactivate"

Expected results:
Allow Update with no errors, and then save the user's state of account.

Comment 7 Namita Soman 2011-10-11 14:08:08 EDT

Verifed using ipa-server-2.1.2-2.el6.x86_64
Now when activating or deactivating a user, a message is displayed that the change will take effect immediately, and the Update button remains disabled
