As a user, I'd like to know what the --otp flag for the ipa passwd command actually does.
--otp
ipa passwd
$ ipa passwd --help Usage: ipa [global-options] passwd USER [options] Set a user's password. Options: -h, --help show this help message and exit --otp One Time Password
I know that OTP means One Time Password, what i don't know is that I should use this flag to change my password if I have enrolled an OTP token (it could also mean that the flag will change my token, it could mean anything related to the token). I suggest a help text that would be something like "add this flag if USER has enrolled an OTP token".
freeipa-client-4.8.4-2.fc31.x86_64
The documentation should also mention that current and new password must be just the password without OTP token.
