[389-users] Re: Setting "lock" time of an account in the future

Actually, I was wrong there is more you need to do.

You need to enable account lockout and set a max failure count:

# dsconf slapd-INSTANCE config set passwordLockout=on passwordMaxFailure=3

Then set in each user entry:

    passwordRetryCount: 3  --> number equal to passwordMaxFailure

    retryCountResetTime: 20230929193912Z   --> you must calculate this
value (and use it for these two attributes)

    accountUnlockTime: 20230929193912Z


That works for me.

HTH,

Mark
