Summary     : The IPA authentication server
Description :
IPA is an integrated solution to provide centrally managed Identity (machine,
user, virtual machines, groups, authentication credentials), Policy
(configuration settings, access control information) and Audit (events,
logs, analysis thereof). If you are installing an IPA server you need
to install this package (in other words, most people should NOT install
this package).

1. install ipa server
2. kinit as admin
3. create a new user : testuser13693
4. as admin, assign initial password : "redhat"

6. enter initial password "redhat"
7. for new passowrd, use : p.1000?X.1



Actual results:
[yi@fig (RH6.3-x86_64) ipa-password] kinit testuser13693
Password for testuser13693@YZHANG.REDHAT.COM:
Password expired.  You must change it now.
Enter new password:
Enter it again:

Kerberos database constraints violated while trying to change password.
.  Please try again.
