How to reset password on 11.11

I am a root on system and not able to reset the passwd of a user. This is the error I am getting .

# Passwd ID

.CASF_E_440 Userid < ID > suspended by administrator

I tried to unlock with modprpw command and activated user ID using SAM , still same problem while resetting the passwd for user , Any Idea ? Thanks in advance.

# /usr/lbin/modprpw -k ID
# passwd ID

account suspended

# sam ...> Activated ID , and did reset .. it shows new passwd but can not login

Tried again after sam activation and reset with passwd command

# passwd id

CASF_E_440 Userid < ID > suspended by administrator

back to same error . Thanks any help is appreciated.

Check for the presence of the /etc/nologin file which may contain this userid.

Let's find the fundamental problem.

Execute /usr/lbin/getprpw user and post the results. I am especially interested in the lockout value.
If it ain't broke, I can fix that.

This is the value from getprpw

The password is NULL. Man getprpw for details and pay attention to the lockout meanings. Perhaps the easist thing to do is execute /sbin/passwd user as root and then run getprpw again.

Re: How to reset password on 11.11

It looks like the user ID's are controlled by CA Unicenter (CASF_E_440) and should be manipulated from the Security component of Unicenter, something like:
cautil list user id=xxxxxxxx expand=y
cautil alter user id=xxxxxxx password=xxxxxxx
cautil reset user id=xxxxxx
