password change

My system is HP9000 rp4440 running on HP-UX 11i v1; I would like to oblige all users to change their password every 60 days, with a warning 2 days before password expiry.Then a issue this command : passwd -w 2 -x 60 user
But I have en error saying that I can't issued the option -w because my system is not a trusted system. My question is that how can I bypass this problem?
thank u

Re: password change

Hi,

Try with "sam" to enable password aging.

Re: password change

If you want to have WARNING setup then you have to convert your machine to trusted mode to maintain secured password aging and policies.

If you don't want to have warning then simply as,

# passwd -x 60 user

is enough. It is possible without trusted mode.
