#49047 password subtree policy issue (ns-newpwpolicy.pl)
Closed: wontfix 4 years ago by mreynolds. Opened 7 years ago by albertocrj.

I'm trying to disable the password expiration for a certain subtree, but after I created that subtree policy, 389 started to store userpassword as plaintext for this subtree.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Enable global policy with password expiration
2. Create a subtree policy using ns-newpwpolicy.pl (without password expiration)
3. Change user password
4. After that, 389 start to storage userpassword as plaintext on this subtree

If I use 389 console to create the subtree policy, everything works fine.

Analysing the nsPwPolicyContainer and nsPwTemplateEntry could not find any difference

ldapsearch -b 'cn="cn=nsPwTemplateEntry,OU=APLICACOES,dc=my,dc=domain",cn=nsPwPolicyContainer,OU=APLICACOES,dc=my,dc=domain' -D "cn=Directory Manager" -x -W '(objectclass=ldapsubentry)'

Using ns-newpwpolicy.pl does not set the storage scheme. So using CLEAR is the default behaviour. However the console incorrectly shows that a password storage scheme is set for the subtree policy, but in fact it is not. So this is a console bug.

For now you just need to set passwordStorageScheme in the subtree policy and everything will work as expected.

Adjusting milestone to admin server...

This is no longer an issue in the new Cockpit UI available in 389-ds-base-1.4.x. Since 389-admin server/console has been deprecated I'm am closing this ticket.
