Hi All,

Is there a way to enable/add security feature on Ranger Admin UI to lockout user/ip when hits a number of failed login attempt?


Thank you,


MD

HelloMD,

 

Ranger doesn't lock the account, it is AD/LDAP setting to manage. 

Basically, you need to check with the AD Admin regarding this policy management.
When you give an incorrect password the BadPwdCnt parameter in AD Account Attribute will increase and the account will not lock till it reaches the Account Locked Threshold.

Hope it helps!

Thanks

Faced a similar issue, which I see as part of https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RANGER-2362
But we can disable the same by setting below property in Ranger

ranger.admin.login.autolock.enabled=false
