RE: ppolicy and pwdGraceUseTime



Thanks for the reply. I actually figured out the problem Friday but was tasked with getting all of the changes done for PCI compliance and didn't have time to mark this as solved.

The problem was that there were 2 ppolicy overlay entries - apparently someone created a ppolicy overlay in 2013 when it was setup but didn't load the module and I didn't detect the previous ppolicy overlay entry was there until I started looking things over with the error. I deleted one and then password changes worked - problem solved.

Hi,

I think you are confusing between the password expiration and account 
lockout.

If your account is locked after several failed attempts to bind, you 
cannot modify your passwords.

Cheers.
