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.

Red Hat Product Errata RHSA-2011:1533 0 normal SHIPPED_LIVE Moderate: ipa security and bug fix update 2011-12-06 01:23:31 UTC

Description Jenny Severance 2011-06-30 20:41:31 UTC 
Description of problem:

Once a user has reached max failed login attempts, an admin should be able to reset the password with ipa passwd and this should reset the failed login counter back to 0.  It is not resetting the counter

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
ipa-server-2.0.99-2.20110629T0200zgit66eeace.el6.x86_64

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. add a new user and set the user's password
2. kinit as the user and change the password
3. kinit as the user with an invalid password
4. kinit as admin and check the user's failure count.
   # ipa user-show --all <userid>

   should see "krbloginfailedcount: 1"
5. reset the user's password as an admin
   # ipa passwd <userid>
6. check the user's failure count.
   # ipa user-show --all <userid>

   should see "krbloginfailedcount: 0"
  
Actual results:
Counter is not reset when password is reset by an admin

Expected results:
Counter to be reset to 0, when password is reset by an admin
