#1393 shadow attributes should accept -1
Closed: Fixed Opened by muzzol.

Closed: Fixed
Reopen Issue

when using shadow attributes SSSD doesn't handle '-1' values:

(Wed Jun 27 12:38:35 2012) [sssd[be[example.net]]] [string_to_shadowpw_days] (0x0020): Input string contains not allowed negative value [-1]

then user can't log in.

some attributes uses '-1' as 'never' or 'infinite' meanings, so should be treated by SSSD.
