Removing Password Aging from the command line

[OldSchool]

Wondering if it is possible to remove password aging from the command line, instead of through sam.

Thanks

Hi,

To disable passwd aging for a specific user from command line, try,

# passwd -n 0 -x 0 username

It may force the user to change his / her password at the next login attempt.

Hope this helps.

Thanks, I tried that just before your response. It worked.

passwd -x 0 -n 0 user_name
