Is there a way in UNIX to display the following info-

Password expiration period
90 days

Lockout Period
Until Admin resets

Password History

Thanks

Sujeet,
you have only awarded points to 9 of 95 answers !
If you read the /etc/default/security on a trusted system, you will get that info.

Just a case of something like:
while read record
do
if [ "$record" = "MIN_PASSWORD_LENGTH" ]
then
echo "Minimum Password length"
echo `echo $record | awk -F'=' '{print $2}'` fi
done < /etc/default/security

The items you want are scattered into several places such as /etc/default/security and the /tcb system-wide settings. Most of the plicy information is available from SAM but the attached script will show your system-wide security policies.

/usr/lbin/getprpw -m username

The above can get the info for each username. Not all users might be configured to use the defaults.

man getprpw for descriptions.
