Potential Bug with SAM

Stacey Andrews_1 — Mon, 21 Feb 2005 18:38:36 GMT

Can someone verify whether or not what I am seeing is a bug in SAM? On HP-UX 11i on a trusted system, a user account with user account setting from /usr/lbin/getprpw. mintm=0, exptm=-1, lftm=-1.

mintm=0 is No minimum time between password changes.
exptm=-1 is password expiration is not set. (will use default)
lftm=-1 is password lifetime is not set. (will use default)
A user account with these setting will expire when the password exceeds the system default password lifetime is exceeded. But the user account in SAM shows that the Password Aging is Disabled. Has anyone seen this before? Is there a patch that address this? Thanks.

Sounds like the command is violating the global settings for the system.

If this is indeed the case we have a bug. It may already be fixed. Search the patch database for sam patches, read the notes and you may find your patch.

I have tried patch PHCO_29249, but it did not correct the problem.
