Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 911329
pwd_expiration_warning has wrong default for Kerberos
Last modified: 2013-11-21 17:14:38 EST
This bug is created as a clone of upstream ticket: https://fedorahosted.org/sssd/ticket/1808 The sssd.conf man page states that the default for pwd_expiration_warning should be 7 days for Kerberos, but it's not. It's actually 0, which means "always display warning if the server sends one". This is very irritating in environments such as IPA or AD.
