Solaris 10 - password expired, enter new password, access denied
I am new to Solaris OS. I implementation few security polices on my solaris machine, after few days, it notifies --warning your password has expired, please change it now, Enter new password: (i gave every type of combination here), it says --Access denied--, enter password. -I tried all of my user-accounts.
I reset all passwords in /etc/password and shadow file (boot from CD and mount disk) I change values in /etc/ssh/sshd_config, /etc/default login and /etc/defaults/password 2x machines in cluster, both behaving same, services are running on 1x node other is being used for managing this issue. Please guide. Thanks. More: I even commend (using # sign) /etc/default/login, /etc/default/passwd, /etc/ssh/sshd_config files for almost all entries. I, tried to reset passwords using /etc/shadow file by removing encrypted entries, it say to enter "new password" afterwards "Access denied" I am using putty to access machines. During implementation of polices, i disable following services as well: Telnet FTP finger sendmail rlogin |
