5 charachet password
I am facing a problem with HP-UX trusted system.
By mistake one of my collegue has changed the passowrd of a appliction and earlier the password of the that user was of 5 character.
Now i am not able to set the passoword to 5 charac due to trusted system of HP.
Is there any way to set the password to 5 charac in a trusted system and what could br the impact...
regards,
tayal

Re: 5 charachet password
run command " /usr/sbin/passwd username " from root user & give any password you want.
/usr/sbin/passwd wort check any password policies before changing password.

Re: 5 charachet password
Below is the answer of the question asked by you
=============
/usr/bin/passwd is dynamically linked and depends on shared executables to be present for successful execution. /sbin/passwd doesnt depend on shared libaries.
file /usr/bin/passwd
/usr/bin/passwd: PA-RISC1.1 shared executable dynamically linked
file /sbin/passwd
/sbin/passwd: PA-RISC1.1 shared executable
=================
waiting for your reply

Re: 5 charachet password
Are you trying to confuse the author by asking this question?
These commands are slightly different.

Re: 5 charachet password
Rename the /etc/deafault/security temprorialy as root
#mv /etc/deafault/security /etc/deafault/security.old
change the password and try to keep it to 5.
if it work then rename the /etc/deafault/security
#mv /etc/deafault/security.old /etc/deafault/security
second :
try to deactivate the password policy of application account via SAM.
third...
if you know the same account on any system which has 5 character password:
copy the encrypted character in TCB location of account. /tcb/files/auth/?/?
hope it give you some hint or soultion to meet your objective.
