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.
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.
