Hi Mariusz, This is what I had: postgres:!!:0:0:99999:7:::8021806 This is what I changed it to: postgres:!!:13066:0:99999:7:::8021806 And the problem goes away. But this doesn't make any sense. According to the man pages there should have been no problem to begin with (password expiry was turned off.) Before: # chage -l postgres Last password change : never Password expires : never Password inactive : never Account expires : never Minimum number of days between password change : 0 Maximum number of days between password change : 99999 Number of days of warning before password expires : 7 After: # chage -l postgres Last password change : Oct 10, 2005 Password expires : never Password inactive : never Account expires : never Minimum number of days between password change : 0 Maximum number of days between password change : 99999 Number of days of warning before password expires : 7 Is this a bug or obscurely documented feature for PAM?
