trusted systems
I believe that there is a way of converting the users in question with one be one( there are only about 10 users that need this) and then unexpiring the users passwords perhaps using modprpw command.
i have never before tried this and wondered if some one can give me some advice on correct command and usage.
regards

Re: trusted systems
Do the users that have entries in the passwd file also have a /tcb/files/auth/?/username entry? If so, just delete the encrypted passwd out of /etc/passwd. If not, I would consider removing and re-adding those particular users.

Re: trusted systems
If you see encrypted strings in the password field of /etc/passwd for some users, there is no need to worry. It is not going to affect the users. Only the encrypted strings in their corresponding tcb files will be used.
If you still want to synchronize the passwords of /etc/passwd to tcb files of those users, then there is a way. Grag the encrypted string from /etc/passwd and use the command
/usr/sbin/lbin/usermod.sam -p "
The above won't work if the user is active.

Re: trusted systems
It is also possible to go with shadow passwords which stores passwords in the /etc/shadow file.

This really provides the shadow functionality but still leaves a single file for hackers to get and crack. It does give you the functionality wihtout the audit and other features of trusted systems that can fill up a hard disk.

Re: trusted systems
If you're only concerned about password experation you can run /usr/lbin/modprpw -V and the tsconvert will not expire passwords.
