[389-users] Local Password Policy Replicated?

[Gerrard Geldenhuis]

>> On a related note,.. the documentation mentions that there is a bug:
>> 13.1.1.5. Manually Setting Default Password Syntax Checking for Local Password Policies
>> <cut>
>> However, there is a bug in Directory Server, so that if a password policy attribute is set in the global password policy but not in the local password policy, then neither the global >setting nor the default settings is enforced by the local password policy. To work around this, set the password attributes explicitly in the local password policy.

I was referring to the bug that the documentation is referring. The documentation does not mention a specific bug number. It does seem to be the https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=190862 bug.

It appears to be not yet resolved then.

Thanks
