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.

Document URL: 
https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/Identity_Management_Guide/pwd-expiration.html

Section Number and Name: 
12.4. Managing Password Expiration Limits

Describe the issue: 

The documentation explain that Password Expiration Limits can be modified using "ipa user-mod --setattr=krbPasswordExpiration " but this command fails with an error like:
ipa: ERROR: Insufficient access: Insufficient 'write' privilege to the 'krbPasswordExpiration' attribute of entry
It is a known issue [1] so this should not be included in the doc

Suggestions for improvement: 
While the issue is not solved, do not mention the procedure since it does not work, just mention the ldapmodify procedure that works fine.

Javier, I think the docs are fixed and we should CLOSE CURRENTVERSION this one. Do you agree?

The status of the bz has apparently by mistake not changed.

Hi Christian,

I agree with CLOSE CURRENTVERSION

Thanks.

Thanks.
Leaving the closing to assignee..

Mass closure. These bugs were live in RHEL 6.5.

The needinfo request[s] on this closed bug have been removed as they have been unresolved for 1000 days
