keep asking password change in Trusted System

[Victor_5]

I converted my 11.0 box to Trusted System a few of weeks ago, after that, I set up "password expiration time" to 1 day for test, then I changed back to default through sam, e.g.

time between password change:20
password expiration time:100
password expiration warning time:20
password lifetime:150

However, the system still keep asking me to change password, no matter for root or for regular user, every day, any possible reason? Thanks.

Is your /etc/passwd file corrupted - I have seen strange things happen when mine was.

Hi,

Try unconverting the server and then converting back as trusted.

tsconvert -r
tsconvert -c

-USA..

Hiya,

You can also use pwck and pwconv to check and update your passwd file. It may clean up your issue, then use sam to make sure the global password aging is configured right, then the user-by-user password again is right too.

Cheers,
James

Have you checked checked the passwd lftm use /usr/lbin/getprpw -m lftm . If it is the system default it should return -1.

You can reset them using the /usr/lbin/modprpw command also.
