There are two ways password policy can be applied to individual objects:
1. Default password policy - If, as in the example above, the password policy
module was configured with the DN of a default policy object and if that object
exists, then the policy defined in that object is applied.
1. The pwdPolicySubentry in a user's object - If a user's object has a
pwdPolicySubEntry attribute specifying the DN of a policy object, then
the policy defined by that object is applied.
2. The pwdPolicySubentry in a user's object - If a user's object contains a
value for the pwdPolicySubEntry attribute, and if that object exists, then
the policy defined by that object is applied. Remember that we need to add
object class pwdPolicy to the user's object as well.
2. Default password policy - If there is no specific pwdPolicySubentry set
for an object, and the password policy module was configured with the DN of a
default policy object and if that object exists, then the policy defined in
that object is applied.
