Hello Managers,
I run a Tru64 UNIX system with NIS and Enhanced Security.
I am attempting to set a user's password to never expire by using each of the following:
# /user/sbin/usermod -x passwd_expiration_time=0 passwd_lifetime=0 fred
# /user/sbin/usermod -x passwd_expiration_time=0 fred
However, in each case the operation fails with the message:
'usermod: User to be modified is no longer in the password file.
The password file has changed since the Account Manager started
Please exit and restart the Account Manager'
I'm confused because I recently created the user so he is in the password file.
Any assistance would be appreciated. Thanks!
Regards,
Allycia Bheekoo
