All above HP-UX 11.11,11.23 & 11.31) Trusted System or Non Trusted System

Is this same command for all the version of HP-UX?

[Johnson Punniyalingam]

trusted system you can do with "modprpw" -> command
non-trsuted system "passwd" -> command

man passwd -> for more information

Hi

Yes it is the same command in all HP-UX systems and you can use SAM also to do this.

SAM>>Users & accounts >> users>>username

Select the user and go to action menu then go to modify securities policy.

You can use command line or Better if you could to complete your task if you are not comfortable with typing commands :)

For non-trusted system:

passwd -x -1 username

[Dennis Handly]

>Tingli: For non-trusted system: passwd -x -1 username

This doesn't work on 11.11 but SAM does.

You can do this thru SAM...!!

Hi ,

You can simply give the nonexpiry passwords as below

#passwd -x -1 username

and see the change after

#passwd -s username
