Hi,

There is no hard and rule. It depends on you. You can set non-expiry password or you can set expiry date.

see man passwd for more details.

Hi,

per default there's no password expiration on HP-UX, you'll have password expiration when configuring /etc/default/security file (man security) or you cna configure it when converting the system to trusted mode.

Best regards,
Fabio
