- Hi,
- Our last Sys Admin put password aging on out PTX 1.3 system. We want to back it out. I also want to rid the system of the /etc/shadow file usage
- if this was a SysAdmin option. Is there a way to do this short of cutting
- and pasting all the password fields from the shadow file to the passwd file?
- And if /etc/shadow is mandatory now, what number do I change to make
- password expiration never occur?
-
- Thanks in advance.
- Kyle
