In our company we do have an IAM tool for user management. We

attributes like ipaNTSecurityIdentifier, ipaUniqueID or uidNumber?

Learn about lifecycle management. This is your way of
integrating with
such tools bvy creating staged users:

I followed the instructions from the documentation.

How could I possibly overcome

Dec 19 09:18:39 tipa01.ipatest.mydomain.at ipa-activate-all[836863]: ipa: ERROR: Constraint violation: pre-hashed passwords are not valid

I need to set passwords from the external system.

You need to enable migration mode (ipa config-mod
--enable-migration true).

By default a pre-hashed password can only be set once: during the
user
add operation.

Ok. So this would not work for a password change. So if we need to
set an initial password and change that particular password in some
point in time the only feasible way is the IPA API, right?

Can the immediate password expiration be overridden?

As we have an upcoming please allow me to ask if I got the point here.

I appreciate your support in this matter!


I was looking over the code. The only way to accept pre-hashed passwords
is when they also have Kerberos keys set. This means you cannot use
external LDAP modify/add for that as you cannot create the Kerberos key
without knowing a Kerberos master key.

So the only other option is to submit a clear-text password:

   userPassword: {CLEAR}text-password

That will be accepted and if bind DN that performed this change is
either a cn=Directory Manager or a one from the passsync managers, it
would also not be marked for expiration immediately.


If I try to set the userPassword attribute to some value with an LDAP
browser and chose "plaintext"  the value gets hashed immediately. I do
see {PBKDF2_SHA256}. As a consequence the user cannot be activated.

What am I doing wrong?

I tried to enable migration mode and wanted to try it again but now I
cannot connect to IPA's LDAP directory at all anymore...

I should have done a little debugging instead of asking again. dirsrv
was not running after ipa config-mod --enable-migration=true

OK. Let me summarize... The whole procedure (creating a user in the
staging area if the password is a cleartext one) works if migration mode
is enabled. What drawbacks arise if migration mode is enabled all the time?

It is extra work whenever a user is unauthorized and has provided a
password because it will try to authenticate with both Kerberos and LDAP
in an attempt to migrate it.

When I add a new IPA user as described above it gets created in the staging area and automaticalle moved to the correct users DN. (as described here https://access.redhat.com/documentation/de-de/red_hat_enterprise_linux/8/html/managing_idm_users_groups_hosts_and_access_control_rules/configuring-idm-for-external-provisioning-of-users_managing-users-groups-hosts#adding-an-IdM-stage-user-defined-in-an-LDIF-file_configuring-IdM-for-external-provisioning-of-users )

However, the given (plaintext) password does not work. I do get an error upon login saying "The password or username you entered is incorrect". Why?

Remark: If I set a new password for this particular user after the user has been activated, it works.

We are still facing this particular problem and do not have any clue why the initial password set by the external system does not work. Any ideas/hints here?

Cheers,
Ronald
