[Fedora-directory-users] FDS Password policy and passsync

[Hugo Etievant]

hi,

I  find the explanation of my problem :  unicode char are accepted by 
Windows Server but refused by FDS.
Only 7 bit chars are accepted for userpassword in FDS.

I disabled the "enforce clean 7 bits attribute value" for userPassword 
attribute in the "7 bits plugin" of my DS with the IDM Console.
Now Unicodes password are accepted by FDS and passsync do not fail.

ldapsearch comand line accept unicode password, but some applications 
(Thunderbird) do not accept unicode password !!!!


Have you a solution for me ?
Can i enfore 7 bits clean into Windows server 2003 ????


regards
