It seems that the setting in the security.properties will have no effect on already existing passwords. It is a flag in the JDOUSER table. However, you cannot manually change this flag (I've tried), because it has influence on the password's hash value. You can inspect the data record now, if tghe value is 0, your password should not expire. > Very odd, though: When I login as admin, the login dialog does not > disappear.
