reseting password for a locked user in trusted computing

[Sivakumar TS]

Hi all,

An user password has expired in trusted computing mode and the account is locked now !

What is the procedure to reset the same?

[A. Clay Stephenson]

/usr/lbin/modprpw -k username # unlocks account
passwd username # reset the password

Man modprpw for details.

[Rainer von Bongartz]

you can use SAM's user and groups menue to unlock the account

Hi

Before resetting the password the user id needs to be unlocked

for unlocking
#/usr/lbin/modprpw -k username

after this you can do a
#passwd username

if you want to reset the user's password and unlock their account and force them to change it upon next login use:
/usr/lbin/modprpw -x (login)
