We have a number of Mac Pros we just got for our organization. We need to require 14-character passwords with upper and lowercase letters and a symbol and a number as might be expected. However, no Macs are allowed on the base network, and there will be no server linking these. I have tried to locally use the pwpolicy CLI tool to do this, but I keep getting:
***Error: eDSAuthFailed : (-14090) for dsDoDirNodeAuth
Method = dsAuthMethodStandard:dsAuthSetPasswd
when I try any commands for global or even individual users. I'm putting in my admin password when asked for a password to execute the command. When I do a -getglobalpolicy, I do see all the default settings though. I feel there's some step I'm missing to either setup or activate the password server so I can make changes to it... any advice?
Yours,
