            I would like to relax the password policy for
              specific users to allow them to modify passwords but use
              similar password to their old one. These are "group"
              accounts and would like to allow password to be set to:
              password01 then allow password to be changed to
              password02. Currently this is not allowed. I understand
              security risk etc in allowing this. I do want to keep
              other password complexity and history settings.
              
                
              Suggestions?
            
          
    I'm not aware of a setting in 389 that prohibits you from using
    secret01, then secret02, and then secret03, etc.  These should all
    be allowed.  Are you using some other client app(freeIPA?) to make
    these password updates?
