CiscoSecure AAA Server (Unix) -- Managing Profiles via CLI

Question

Greetings All,
Am wanting to modify user profiles -- specifically, I am looking to apply or modify password expiry dates.
I understand the general profile structure and syntax, however, I am not able to modify the profile line to include the expiration string (e.g. until "31 Dec 2005") using the UpdateProfile (with -a option) or UpdatePassword commands in the CLI. I know this can be done, easily, using the Web interface, but the situation I am currently facing dictates use of either the CLI commands or direct modification of the user record in the CS database (and I'm no SQL guru).
Does anyone know how I can accomplish this, so that my user profiles will resemble the following:
User Profile Information
user = test{
profile_id = 41
profile_cycle = 4
member = ANALYSTS
password = clear "*******" <font color = "red">until "31 Dec 2005"</font>
Thanks in advance for any assistance.

PS If I can only accomplish this by direct modification of the database record(s), can you detail the appropriate SQL commands?

Answer 1

I appreciate your reply, but maybe I wasn't clear.
I understand how to modify profiles using the UpdateProfile command. What is happening is that I cannot modify the password entry in the profile to change the expiration.
In regards to the sample profile provided:
user = test{
profile_id = 41
profile_cycle = 4
member = ANALYSTS
password = clear "*******" until "31 Dec 2005"
Say user "test" has allowed his password to expire. The profile contains this expiration date (in this case, 31 Dec 2005) which you can view using the command "ViewProfile -u test". You can also modify the password using the command "ChangePassword -u test -pr clear -opw oldPasswd -npw newPasswd" or, more preferable, "UpdatePassword -u test -pr clear -npw newPasswd". Regardless how you change the password, the string representing the expiration date, " until "31 Dec 2005" ", remains unchanged.
I was hoping that the date could be changed using the following command:
UpdatePassword -a password = clear "******" until "1 Jan 2006"
However, this is not happening. The end result is a profile that has, subesquently, been thoroughly munged, and there is no other recourse but to delete and recreate the profile . Definitely an unnecessary choice, but there seems to be no other recourse.
Anyone with more insight???
