How to enable password aging on tru 64 machines

ALL GURU'S

Out there I need some help setting up password aging on true 64 .That can also work for the existing users as well. OR is there a way I can expire there password and then they can reset so the new policy takes effect for the existing users as well. I need to set password MAX AGE, password MIN age, password length, and etc ...any help will be appreciated.

You need to enable enhanced security, that is done through sysman secconfig.

After that, you can enable password policies.

Please check the Security Guide available at the tru64 Unix documentation page. You can use dxaccounts to set the password policies.

Also, be aware that setting Advanced Security has side-effects beyond just password aging. Study the references for this change carefully before you enable it, as it has restrictions that may surprise you.
