Users automatically disabled

[Renante M. Yu_1]

Hi there,
I received a lot of calls recently from users requesting to enable their logins, when I asked one of them what happen ti isolate the problem..a user said that he was able to login the other day but was disabled the next day when he tried to login. When I was about to enable his unix account through SAM, a message box prompts "User account is deactivated bec. its account lifetime has expired". But I'm sure after converting the server to trusted, I did not set the account lifetime expiry entirely. How will I be able to disable this feature? Thanks in advance and Happy New Year!

you have to check the file for

/tcb/files/auth/system/default

u_life

u_life defines the password life time

hi,

by default, password life time is set at 150 days after you have enable the password aging policies.

in /tcb/files/auth/system, u_life is computed in seconds which is 12960000.

regards.
