Re: Changing password in Kerberos environment

[Ondrej Holy <oholy redhat com>]

Hi Yvan,

I suspect you don't use "enterprise accounts" (using realmd), but you have reconfigured pam and use something 
like pam_krb5.so instead of pam_unix.so. So you don't have configured your unix password (if it is possible). 
I pretend accountsservice doesn't support such manual configuration, thus it returns that the account is 
disabled, because /etc/passwd doesn't contain necessary entries probably. However it still won't work in 
g-c-c if it would be fixed in accountsservice, because there is parser for passwd which isn't also work with 
another pam plugins...

Recommended way is using enterprise accounts, but still g-c-c doesn't allow you to change the password, 
because there isn't realmd api for it...

Regards

Ondrej
