User login Urgent

When i am changing the password of a normal user from super user ID i am getting a message that :passwd lifetime has passed:
i have nullified the password in the /tcb file of user but still giving the same error

output of getprpw is
ofidb101@root:/etc/rc.config.d>/usr/lbin/getprpw applmgr
uid=503, bootpw=NO, audid=21, audflg=1, mintm=-1, maxpwln=-1, exptm=-1, lftm=-1, spwchg=Tue Jul 1 15:37:14 2008, upwchg=Sun Mar 15 11:28:31 2009, acctexp=-1, llog=-1, expwarn=-1, usrpick=DFT, syspnpw=DFT, rstrpw=DFT, nullpw=DFT, admnum=-1, syschpw=DFT, sysltpw=DFT, timeod=-1, slogint=Sun Mar 15 11:58:53 2009, ulogint=Sun Mar 15 11:42:12 2009, sloginy=tty, culogin=-1, uloginy=-1, umaxlntr=3, alock=NO, lockout=1000100

the third lock 1 is due to null password..

please suggest...
We have security plicy to expire the passwd after 90 days...

To get proper response, you need to assign points to your thread.

Re: User login Urgent

Oops.. I tried that on True64 server

On HP-UX:

lockout=1000100

If any position 1-7 is = to 1, the account will was locked for the following reason:
(man getprpw)
Position 1
past password lifetime
Position 2
past last login time (inactive account)
Position 3
past absolute account lifetime
Position 4
exceeded unsuccessful login attempts
Position 5
password required and a null password
Position 6
admin lock
Position 7
password is a *

This will help you isolate the reason/cause of the locked account

Re: User login Urgent

Hi Biju,

You need enable the "account" first"

/usr/lbin/modprpw -k

try login has the user and try, If still not able to login .. "Password must has ve expired" you need to reset the password and try again

Thanks,
Johnson

Re: User login Urgent

Hi

Yes use
#/usr/lbin/modprpw -k

to enable the user or

use

#/usr/lbin/modprpw -x

to enable the user ID and get a system generated password at the same time.
