Hi Howdy,

 Two questions on IPA usage are listed below. Please help.

 1, How to reset a normal IPA user's password through web interface when the password is expired? 


 when the normal user's password is close to expiration but still not expired, he/she can change it by self through the web interface https://ipaserver/. Otherwise he/she has to do ssh/kinit to update his/her password. But the problem is: quite some users are non tech-savy -- managers, marketing, sales -- and they have no ideas of Linux or Kerberos, what they can do is accessing a web interface and filling HTML forms.

 2, When the freeIPA 3.0 and 3.1 series RPM will be available on Redhat 6? does IPA version 3.0/3.1 has backup/restore solutions, and merged CA LDAP instance and IPA LDAP instance? 


  Presently the IPA version on redhat 6.3 is 2.2.0, I can wait if IPA 3.0 or 3.1 will comes out soon for redhat 6 and have the cool features.

Thanks a lot.
