If you are using a 4.1 server (at least under AIX) make sure you set it to
non-null.
Otherwise your nodes will pick up the server expire days as the default.
I spent a few days trying to figure out why some netware nodes wouldn't
authenticate after 90 days...
If you want non-expiring passwords, use passexp=0 and save yourself some grief.

Please respond to
"ADSM: Dist Stor
Manager"
Try:
update admin xxxx passexp=days
If days are blank or not set (q admin) then I believe it is 30 days. If set
to 0 then do not expire password.
Hope this helps

Subject: password reset?
We love the ADSM tape library. It saves our butts all the time.
Only one small problem: we have 3 admin accounts set up in ADSM.
Occasionally the passwords for an admin account will be reset, deleted, or
something. Anyway, we can't logon to that account.
It seems to happen once a year or so, maybe. So far it's never happened
that all 3 admin accounts passwords got blow away at the same time. If
that ever were to happen we'd be screwed - no one could logon and reset
the passwords.
I've looked in the GUI interface to try to see anything like, "reset
passwords after X days" or something like, but I havn't found anything
like that.
Anyone know the command to turn that off, or lengthen the time of reset?
Thanks in advance,
Alex
