It's /etc/login.defs where those values are defined. We don't want to change
those.
Nah, that's obsolete. /etc/login.defs still exists, but it's not used
by useradd in
systems with pam. The actual value used by useradd is found in
/etc/pam.conf nowadays.
Again, that's "methinks" ... the 'man' command is your friend!
