19.2. Viewing Password Policies


There can be multiple password policies configured in IdM. There is always a global policy, which is set when the server is created. Additional policies can be created for groups in IdM.
The UI lists all of the group password policies and the global policy on the Password Policies page.
Using the CLI, both global and group-level password policies can be viewed using the pwpolicy-show command. The CLI can also display the password policy in effect for a user.

19.2.1. Viewing the Global Password Policy

The global password policy is created as part of the initial IdM server setup. This policy applies to every user until a group-level password policy supersedes it.
The default settings for the global password policy are listed in Table 19.2, “Default Global Password Policy”.

19.2.3. Viewing the Password Policy in Effect for a User

A user may belong to multiple groups, each with their own separate password policies. These policies are not additive. Only one policy is in effect at a time and it applies to all password policy attributes. To see which policy is in effect for a specific user, the pwpolicy-show command can be run for a specific user. The results also show which group policy is in effect for that user.
[root@server ~]# kinit admin
[root@server ~]# ipa pwpolicy-show --user=jsmith
  Group: global_policy
  Max lifetime (days): 90
  Min lifetime (hours): 1
  History size: 0
  Character classes: 0
  Min length: 8
  Max failures: 6
  Failure reset interval: 60
  Lockout duration: 600
