Is this a bug in trusted database?

[Bolek Mynarski]

I have noticed something which bothers me and I would like to know if this is a "normal" behaviour or a bug. Problem:

Default values set for users:
Time between password changes (days): 1
Password expiration time (days): 90
Password expiration warning time (days): 7
Password lifetime (days): 135

Now, if I execute /usr/lbin/getprpw user, I should see something like:
exptm=90
expwarn=7
lftm=135

or
exptm=DFT
expwarn=DFT
lftm=DFT

Instead, I see:
exptm=-1
expwarn=-1
lftm=-1

which translates (if I understand it correctly) to not set. What is going on here? Have I missed a patch or something? This is on HP-UX 11.00.

Thanks.

The behavior you are getting is not normal.

There are a few promising patches that MIGHT deal with this problem.

Note: This list is not complete. I got it by punching in trusted system in the main patch link on itrc's front page.

The first two on this list are one star patches which are considered more risky than the rest.

I'd definitely do an Ignite backup prior to installationation. make_tape_recovery

Hi,

Check this doc, I know it is for 11.11 but the option should be the same,
