Description Arvid Requate

The UCS manual should mention that the "Password expiry interval" in the UDM password policy must be set empty (i.e. not to 0) to disable password expiry.

A similar comment could be added for the maxiumum password age property of the samba domain object (IIRC empty or "-1" in that case. I guess "0" would effectively disable logins).

Documented in Chapter 5.2 "Policy-based password management"

The setting in the Samba domain object was already documented.

Comment 3 Arvid Requate

Ok, well phrased:
"If this input field is left blank, no password expiry interval is applied."

This leaves room for the new adjustment of Bug 29918.
