Robert Levas created AMBARI-10018: ------------------------------------- Summary: Kerberos: Password generator needs to generate passwords based on a pattern Key: AMBARI-10018 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMBARI-10018 Project: Ambari Issue Type: Bug Components: ambari-server Affects Versions: 2.0.0 Reporter: Robert Levas Assignee: Robert Levas Fix For: 2.0.0
The password generator used to generate passwords for identities needs to generate passwords based on a pattern rather than just a random sequence of characters. For the MIT KDC, this isn't an issue; however for an Active Directory, there may be a policy in place requiring a certain characteristics for the password. By reating a password consisting if 18 characters pulled randomly from {{abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ1234567890?.!$%^*()-_+=~}}, there is no guarantee that any specific policy will be met. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
