Unable to change users' passwords on sssd clients if password control is not enabled on the backend servers
Issue
When password control is not enabled on the backend server, you can not change a user passwords via a RHEL7.x sssd client
Regarding the previous RHEL5.x and 6.x releases, based on this KCS "Password change operation fails using SSSD against Oracle/Sun Directory Server fails & Tivoli Directory Server ", a workaround is proposed. This no longer is the valid approach in RHEL7 clients
Environment
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.x
ODSEE / Tivoli Directory Server
sssd
